Recently, Victoria Chen, the product manager on the Office AI team, made an announcement about an improvement to OneNote on Windows. It allows you to relocate ink annotations alongside the PDF printouts and images they are linked to.
This change was introduced as a lot of users have given feedback that annotating images or PDF printouts in OneNote was challenging. The ink didn’t move with the image, and using the Lasso tool every time was time-consuming and not easy.
However, with this new update,Microsoft 365users can move both image and annotation together. Moreover, any ink touching and outside of the image will stay on the image or PDF when you move them, ensuring the ink annotations & picture are together.
Let us see how it works
Open OneNote, go to Insert, then click Picture or Insert, then select File Printout to add an image or PDF printout. Ink the image, then tap on the image to select it and ink using a digital pen, touch, or your mouse. Now, move the selected image anywhere you like.
Here are some tips to use the feature:
The feature is now available forMicrosoft Insidersin the Beta Channel who are running version 2402 (Build 17407.15010) or later. Also, this OneNote feature is currently only available on Windows 10, or 11.
