Trying to get Copilot to work with Word

Question

Hi,

I am using M365 with a uni subscription. That, apparently, does not include Copilot.

I understand that I can subscribe to Copilot Pro seperately. What I don't understand is: Can I get Copilot Pro (booked seperately) to interact with my writing in Word? (And if so, how?)

Basically, what I think should/could happen is Copilot "looking over my shoulder" as I write and commenting/suggesting alongside. (But I have no idea if that's what happens even with Copilot being included in the M365-subscription, since it's not included in mine.)

I have used the trial-subscription but could not get Copilot to "see" Word while I was working on a text. (Obviously, I could copy the text in to Copilot, but that's not different from any other AI. I'm looking for actual integration. But, again, no idea if that's even offered at all.)

Thanks, Ulrich
