How to precisely control the cursor in MS Word when touch input?

Question

Microsoft Office

On a Samsung ativ smart pc xe700 (Win8.1) tablet, MS Word 2016 is installed. When you poke a finger into the text, the cursor is placed only in front or behind the word, but not inside it. In the best case, the word is highlighted and you still have to adjust the cursor to the right place through the keyboard. If the text is corrected often, then this idleness takes a lot of time. All settings clambered at random and did not find any parameters that would somehow affect the behavior. The internet is also quiet. How to turn it off?
