Paste
MS Word formatted content from the clipboard in the current cursor
position. This removes all empty tags and style formatting before
pasting.
Tables should be shown as equivalent HTML tables
and fonts will be preserved in many cases.
To cut and paste straight from Word does not
strip this out:
Highlight the document page area and copy it [ctrl]+[c] and
then paste into the page editor - place the caret into the page
at the point you wish to paste and paste [ctrl]+[v]. Fonts, and
tables will largely be preserved, and any links will be preserved
also.
Alternatively highlight the area on the document
you require and then, with the mouse pointer over the highlighted
area simply drag the mouse (holding the left button) into the
page editor page.
The same feature works in the same way when copying
from a web page. Tables and links, as well as fonts and sizes
are copied across. Please note that you must have permission to
use information when copying from a web page.
Be aware that if you cut from another web page
or Word, your web page may behave in unexpected ways, as there
may be formatting or features in there that the original author
placed there. This can mean that you are unable to format a page
correctly or remove all formatting properly. If in doubt, we suggest
you cut and paste into Notepad (Windows text editor), copy this
Notepad text and paste into your web page, as this will the import
just pure text.
