Insert
What is Insert?
Definition
Insert means to add new content into an existing document, slide, or file at a specific location. This action places elements such as text, images, tables, or symbols into the current structure without removing what is already present. This matters because it allows information to be expanded and organised while preserving existing work, which supports accurate editing and efficient document development.
