Installing the Add-In for Word

When you install Citavi the Add-In for Word is automatically installed as well, as long as Microsoft Word 2016 or newer. The Add-In appears as an additional Ribbon "Citavi" in Microsoft Word.

If you were already using Word with Citavi's Word Add-In and then installed a major Microsoft Office update, you will need to uninstall and reinstall the Citavi Word Add-In.
