Only few people may be aware of the powerful features of Google Docs like voice typing, clear formatting, tagging somebody in the comments. In today's article , we will tell you about some amazing features of Google Docs, knowing which will make a lot of your work easier. So let's tell you this feature today-
Offline Mode
It is not necessary that you should be online to do some work in Google Docs. You can work in Google Docs even offline, online working is not necessary. You can turn on offline mode in google docs by going to the settings of Google Drive. The biggest advantage of Google Docs is that you do not have to save the content document again and again. Content is auto saved in Google Docs.
Do voice typing
If you feel that you are tired of typing, then you can type by speaking in many languages including Hindi-English.
For this, login to Gmail, open Google Docs by clicking on the 9 dot visible next to the profile photo on the right side.
Now navigate to tools and click on Tools in the google docs bar that appears at the top of the docs. Where you will get the option of voice typing.
Now click on Voice Typing and choose your preferred language and speak to type. However, this tool will work only in Google Chrome browser.
Clear Formatting
Many times we copy content from another site and paste it in Google Docs. In such a situation, the content is also pasted in the docs in the formatting of that website itself.
In such a situation, you may have trouble editing the content copied. So select the entire content and go to Format in the menu bar of google docs and do clear formatting or click on the T shown in the right site at the top of the docs.
Desired Photo Size
If you want, you can add any size photo with text in any document. For this, go to Insert > Drawing >new > Shape from the menu bar of google Docs.
After selecting the shape, click on T (Text Box) and write whatever text you want in the photo. It is not necessary to put the photo in the docs itself, you can also download it if you want.
Tag someone in a comment
Like Microsoft Word, you can also do typing work in Google Docs. If you are in the process for editing a doc and if there is any mistake in content or want to take any suggestion, then you may tag it by selecting the sentence from which you may want to take/show the suggestion.
An email will be sent to whomever you tag, and what you have written in the comment will also appear.
