Title: Copy, Paste from Office 2004 to browser..
Post by: Gregg on November 13, 2008, 12:34:58 PM
Using Word version 11.5.0 I often have trouble pasting multiple paragraphs into a browser. I use Safari most of the time, and Firefox occasionally. In order to get the job done, I have to go back and forth, selecting smaller blocks of text until I get it to paste successfully. I don't have a problem copying multiple paragraphs from TextEdit into Safari. So, I deduce that the problem is with Word, and I suspect that blank lines (returns) are the source of the glitch. It would be great if anyone knows a simple fix for this. wallbash.gif

More likely, the problem is formatting information on the Clipboard. There's an option in Preferences to tell Word not to include formatting information on the Clipboard; does that help?

I found that Include formatted text in Clipboard was not checked. dntknw.gif
