Inserting Google Image Word Mac Calls It

In your Word document, click where you want to insert the slide.

If you need an individual image rather than the entire slide, get the original image that was used to create the slide and insert that image into Word.

If you no longer have the original image, it may be possible to copy the image from the PowerPoint slide.

Nothing is listed on any of the menus, or when I searched the help field (thats because the Mac calls it overtype, which I didnt know at the time).

If you click the OVR word, its circle will turn green and you will write over text until you again click the OVR box.

But its one that I actually get asked a fair bit by PC switchers, as the Mac doesnt have an Insert key as such (the Clear key will provide that functionality when booted into Windows on an Intel Mac, however.

The REC box starts recording a macro; TRK enables track changes mode; and EXT extends the selection -- such that when you click the mouse, your selection is extended to that point.

Another option for Word 2008 is to click Customize Toolbars and Menus on the View menu.

Click the Commands tab and select Overtype from the All Commands category.

Then you can either add the OVR command to a toolbar or create a keyboard shortcut.

I rarely use Overtype but occasionally its invaluable for completing basically assembled forms in word where form authors have relied (a little annoyingly, albeit well intended) on the use of underscores to block out a fillable area.

Option 1: Set in preferences (less useful, bit fiddly, but quick for a one off) Word Preferences Edit Overtype (toggle box) Option 2.: Add a Custom Menu command for Overtype View Toolbars Customize Toolbars Menus (Click Commands tab) (Click All Commands filter) Overtype (drag either to menu or toolbar) I put under Edit menu.

If you really want the toolbar button, with Word 2011 and the new Ribbon, it seems to only let you drag the custom toolbar entry to the toolbar at very top of the Word window.

Hope this helps - I was surprised at how tricky this was to find, too.
