Convert handwriting to text

Take quick handwritten notes, and later convert them to text to align with the rest of your content. It’ll even preserve the size and color of your ink, as well as highlights and effects! On the Draw tab, click the Lasso Select button. Drag a circle around the text you want to convert, then click Ink to Text.

More dazzling ink effects

Grab a pen on the Drawing tab and try out lava, ocean, bronze, and rose gold. Make your notes sparkle!

More graph features

In addition to graphing your function, OneNote can now calculate its key features — such as minima, maxima, or axes intercepts.

Revisit recent pages

Use the new Forward and Back arrows above the Home tab to navigate through the note pages you’ve already visited.

Link to a specific paragraph

Create a link to a specific paragraph and jump to that content. It’s a great way to make a quick table of contents at the top of a long page of notes, or copy the link and paste it in an email to help others find the specific content you want them to see.

Copy a hyperlink

Right-click a hyperlink in your notes and copy the link to use in other places.
