Microsoft has released an update for Microsoft Word 2013. This update provides the latest fixes for the 32-bit and 64-bit editions of Word 2013 and Office Home and Student 2013 RT. Additionally, this update contains stability and performance improvements. 

Issues that this update fixes

  • Consider the following scenario:

    • You have a computer that has Internet Explorer 11 Preview installed.

    • You insert an Adobe Flash or Microsoft Silverlight video into a Word 2013 document.

    • You try to play the video.

    In this scenario, the video does not play, and you receive the following error message:

    We can't play this video because you're missing a plugin.

  • Assume that a Word 2010 document contains a paragraph, and tab stops are inserted on the right side of the right indent marker. After you convert the document to a Word 2013 document, the text layout of the paragraph is changed unexpectedly.

  • When you present a Word 2013 document to other users by using the Office Online Presentation service, the End Online presentation button does not work.

This update also adds telemetry functions to the Word 2013 PDF Reflow feature.
