Add documents of any kind to your Ayoa whiteboard - learn how with this quick guide.
Are you looking to add lots of information, but you want to easily update it without leaving Ayoa? Instead of using a word document you can utilise the white board document creator to add a text document embedded in the Whiteboard that can be edited at any time.
Within this document you can style it, embed images and videos, tables and even mathematical formulas or code snippets. The document can then be viewed in full on the white board canvas, without needing to download it or open it in a new tab.

1. Open a Whiteboard.

2. Click on the document icon on the white board toolbar.

3. You will be given the option to choose how large you want the document to be. This will be how much space the document takes on the canvas.
