    Microsoft Copilot for Word allows
    00:00:04
    you to rework your existing
    00:00:05
    documents in several ways.
    00:00:07
    The rephrasing of one or more blocks,
    00:00:09
    or even the entire document
    00:00:11
    can be done quite easily.
    00:00:13
    Here, for example,
    00:00:14
    I will select three paragraphs of my text.
    00:00:17
    The first possibility is then to click
    00:00:19
    on the Copilot icon next to my text and
    00:00:22
    select the Rewrite option from the menu.
    00:00:25
    Once the proposal is generated,
    00:00:26
    I can if necessary,
    00:00:28
    ask for another proposal using the
    00:00:30
    Regeneration icon or ask Copilot
    00:00:32
    for a version with a different tone.
    00:00:35
    Satisfied with the initial proposal,
    00:00:37
    I click on Replace to insert
    00:00:39
    the generated blocks.
    00:00:40
    It is also possible to solicit the
    00:00:42
    Copilot chat directly from the ribbon.
    00:00:45
    Other options will then be offered to me.
    00:00:48
    Here I decide to ask Copilot to write a
    00:00:51
    concluding paragraph for the document.
    00:00:53
    I finalize by copying and pasting into
    00:00:55
    my document in conversational mode.
    00:00:57
    In this Copilot panel,
    00:00:59
    I can make more global rewriting requests.
    00:01:01
    Here, for example,
    00:01:02
    I request a complete rewrite
    00:01:05
    in a casual mode.
    00:01:06
    Once generated,
    00:01:07
    I can view the result and the references,
    00:01:10
    that is the blocks of my document
    00:01:12
    identified as relevant by the
    00:01:14
    copilot for my rewriting.
    00:01:15
    In my case I will copy and paste
    00:01:18
    the result into a blank document.
    00:01:23
    In the Copilot panel,
    00:01:24
    it is interesting to note the prompt
    00:01:27
    suggestions that allow you to discover
    00:01:29
    examples of requests manageable by Copilot.
    00:01:32
    It can be interesting, for example,
    00:01:34
    to entrust copilot with generating
    00:01:36
    a summary of the document.
    00:01:38
    For each generated result,
    00:01:40
    Microsoft Copilot will offer me prompt
    00:01:42
    suggestions to change, for example,
    00:01:44
    the previously generated summary
    00:01:46
    and make it shorter or longer.
    00:01:48
    It is also possible to generate
    00:01:50
    your request by writing the prompt
    00:01:53
    without using the suggestions.
    00:01:55
    Be aware that the requests you
    00:01:57
    generate may not succeed whether
    00:01:59
    your prompts are entered manually
    00:02:00
    or by clicking on a suggestion,
    00:02:03
    so do not hesitate to reformulate
    00:02:05
    your request differently.
    00:02:06
    To conclude on this notion of
    00:02:08
    rewriting and summarizing,
    00:02:09
    know that other prompt suggestions
    00:02:11
    are available by clicking on the icon
    00:02:14
    resembling a small book view prompt.
    00:02:16
    The prompt proposals will be related
    00:02:18
    to the creation of editorial content,
    00:02:21
    document analysis,
    00:02:21
    or requests related to user support or
    00:02:24
    the optimization of existing documents.
