Troubleshoot ink in Excel
I don't see any commands for inserting ink.
You must have a Tablet PC to use the ink features in Microsoft Office Excel 2003.
Do one of the following:
- On the Insert menu, tap Ink Annotations.
- On the View menu, tap Toolbars, and then tap Ink Annotations or Ink Drawing and Writing.
- Tap the ink on the worksheet, and the corresponding ink toolbar will appear.
My data is not visible because it is covered by ink.
You may have to move or resize the ink to view your data.
Do one of the following:
- If the ink toolbar isn't showing, tap the ink.
- On the ink toolbar, tap Select Objects, and then select the ink.
- Drag the ink to the new location.
To select ink, do one of the following:
Select ink on a desktop or laptop computer
- Click the ink.
- On the Ink Drawing and Writing or Ink Annotations toolbar, tap Select Objects.
- Tap the ink you want to format.
Sizing handles and an outline of the ink shapes indicate that the ink is selected.
- Rest the pointer on one of the sizing handles until the pointer becomes a double-headed arrow.
- Drag one of the top or side handles to stretch or shrink the ink vertically or horizontally. Drag a corner handle to make the ink stretch or shrink proportionally.
I closed an ink toolbar, and now I can't get it back.
Do one of the following:
- Tap ink on the worksheet and the corresponding ink toolbar will appear.
- On the View menu, tap Toolbars, and then tap Ink Annotations or Ink Drawing and Writing.
