In the Windows desktop version, you can draw or handwrite anywhere on a note as well.

You can also dock your note to a small window on your desktop for easy note-taking or writing while you surf the web. Or you can apply various templates to make your notes or pages stand out.Ĭontinuing the Word document analogy, OneNote also includes writing tools such as a research panel to look up reference sources, a thesaurus, a spell checker and language translation.

You can also customise how each note looks (really, they’re more like pages than notes), altering the background colour, gridlines and page sizes. OneNote’s menus include text formatting tools like quick styles (for headings, footers and so on) and the very useful “format painter” tool to copy and apply formatting. Also like using a paper notebook, you can add text, images, tables and more anywhere on the page - side by side if you want - and format them as easily as you can a Word document.

OneNote takes the “ digital notebook” analogy to heart, organising notes into coloured tabbed sections within notebooks.
