Inserting objects into a document
You can copy or link an object from the Gallery into a document. The difference is that a linked object can be updated in your document if the object is changed in the Gallery, simply by updating the link.
To insert an object:
- Choose Tools > Gallery and select a theme.
- Select an object with a single click, then drag and drop the object into the document. (See Figure 3.)
