Want "cloud" shape in Word, to highlight changes
We use a fairly standard "cloud" technique to highlight changes in our technical drawings. In Acrobat it is easy to create exactly the right thing; I have attached an example jpg here.
However, the closest thing I can get in Word is a starburst, which isn't what we want. Does anyone know how to get an autoshape-like cloud in Word? We need it to be transparent and resizeable. Thanks for any help - |

Hi Arbie,
Word doesn't have such an autoshape, but you can achieve much the same thing with the image in your post. See attached. I simply formatted the shape with the 'in front of text' attribute and set the white background to transparent. If you store such a shape in a document, it will be available in this format for any document you care to copy it to.
