Welcome to the official WPS Academy. In this article, you will learn how we can draw in a word document in WPS Office.

How to draw in WPS Writer

Drawing is the use of lines, colors and other tools to draw graphics. In WPS Writer, you can use the Scribble feature to draw freely. You can also insert shapes into the document to enrich your image. This function is the same as the one in Microsoft Office Word.

Sometimes, in order to enrich your document, you may want to add some drawings to your word document.

How do we use Scribble for free drawing when editing a Word document in WPS Writer? Just 5 simple steps as following.

1. Open the Word document in WPS Writer. It can be an empty document or an article -- you can draw on the text if you want.

2. Get into the Insert tab → click Shapes.

3. In the Lines option section in the drop-down menu, select Scribble .

4. Move the mouse to start drawing on the Word page document.

5. Release the mouse to finish drawing.

A simple drawing operation is done!
