Word: This is how the auto-summary works

Auto-summary is a nice feature, but it is no longer supported in Word. This practical tip shows you how to use this function in the older versions.

This is how Word Auto Summary works

You need Word version 2007 or 2003 for this feature, because Microsoft no longer continues this in newer versions:

• The feature highlights the focus of your text or document. This feature is suitable for articles, academic papers or reports in order to highlight important points.
• The existing text is analyzed based on the frequency of words. As soon as words appear more often, they are documented in the summary.
• In Word versions 2003 and 2007 you will find this feature under "Tools"> "AutoSummarize".
