Extra Tips for Comments in Word

  • Comments can be edited like normal text, but fewer formatting options are available. Basic changes, like bold and italicized text, will work, as will font selection.Images can be added to comments, but the space is so small your recipient will likely have trouble viewing them. The width of the markup area cannot be adjusted, so larger images will be cropped on their right side.Once a comment is committed, the text remains highlighted. A dotted line will connect the highlighted text to the comment, which appears with the name of the user that created the comment. If a different user opens the document, the comments will appear in the same way you see them.

Changing Your Name in Comments

Any comments you create will appear with your name as specified in Word. However, you can change the name and initials that appear at the top of your comments from within Word:

  • On Windows, you can change the displayed name at File > Options > General, then scroll to the Personalize your copy of Microsoft Office section.On macOS, you’ll find the same section under Preferences > User Information.

Once you find the aforementioned sections, type in your preferred name and initials. Be sure to tick the box beneath your name to force Word to use this information; this overrides your Office account name and replaces it with the name and initials specified here.
