How to Utilize Bing Image Search in Office 2013 and 2016

To simplify adding photos to your papers, Microsoft has integrated Bing image search straight into Office 2013's suite. Add size, type, and color filters when searching for photos on the desktop using Office apps. You can also find out more information about each photo. OneNote pages and photographs of tree houses will be used in this example to gather inspiration for a forthcoming project.

Web Images

Insert >''' Online Pictures in OneNote is where you'll begin your search for tree homes. Press the Enter key on your keyboard after typing "tree house" into the Bing Image Search box. Bing, by default, only searches for photos licensed under Creative Commons. This is a crucial filter when making a public speech or writing a business paper, but it doesn't matter for a personal notepad.

In the search field, select all photos from the dropdown option. We may also narrow our picture search by size and color, which are simple possibilities. On the other hand, the Type filter is something to keep an eye on. Only photos, Clipart, line drawings, transparent pictures, and animated GIFs will be displayed if we use this feature.

How To Utilize The Office Bing Image Search

You're ready to get started as soon as you've opened up your document, determined where you want to place a picture, and tapped into Bing Image Search. Find your way here:

• Click on the Insert tab to get started. To the right of the Home button in most Microsoft Office applications, you'll find this option:
• Take a look at the dropdown menu labeled "Online Pictures." A little globe symbolizes the Internet on this tool, which may be found to the right of the Pictures tool. If you don't choose Online Pictures, your computer will just look at local photographs and not upload anything.
• Using your browser's Bing search, you may search for images on the Internet. Enter a few keywords or phrases into the search field and see what comes up in the results list. Just like a standard Bing image search, you can scroll through them.
• Select Insert when you've located the ideal image. Your Office document will be able to use this image.

The following is a brief overview of browsers and applications. For the most part, Bing Image Search is now compatible with nearly every platform, although there are some limitations. If you're still using Internet Explorer, you may not be able to use the picture search tool.

If you were using a version of Microsoft Office before 2007, you wouldn't be able to use the picture search tool. But Bing Image Search can be used on any desktop or mobile device thanks to its compatibility with all browsers and operating systems, including Chrome.

Results Filtering

Bing Image Search's unfiltered version normally displays all results from the Bing search engine. Filtering these photographs may be necessary for various reasons, such as speeding up your search. Useful filtering options to keep in mind include:

Creative Commons

Only photos that may be modified, shared, and economically exploited are available here. When you need to utilize legal photographs in your job, this is an excellent filter to have. Look in the Bing window's lower-left corner to see if you can see this: "Showing all results" will be displayed if the CC filter is not turned on.

"Only photographs licenced under a Creative Commons licence will be shown." Only photographs that are likely to be sold are displayed when you click. Earlier versions of the software may not have this option available, so you should seek the License dropdown tab: Select the "Free to distribute and use commercially" filter by clicking on it.

Clipart

Adding the phrases "clip art," such as "dancing couple clip art," to your Bing Image Search can help you find cartoons with lighter, brighter Clipart. As a result, Bing will only show you Clipart in your search results going forward. To manually change the picture type to Clipart, you may select the option in the Image Type dropdown menu.
