Introduction
You may want to insert a text box into your document to draw attention to specific text or to have the ability to easily move text around within a document. Text boxes are basically treated the same as shapes, so you can add the same types of effects to them, and you can even change their shape. If you want, you can format the text inside the text box as WordArt, allowing you to apply 3-D effects and transformations to the text itself.
In this lesson, you will learn how to insert a text box and format it in various ways including resizing and moving it, and changing the text box shape, color, and outline. You will also learn how to create and format WordArt.
