Thread: Cut & Paste

Ever paste things into a post from a Word document and then have a mess of different fonts and paragraph settings? This is especially true pasting things that you capture from Internet screens.

Here’s a foolproof way to head off that problem.

Open Notepad (Start / Programs / Accessories / Notepad) Copy the text you want. Paste it into Notepad. Highlight all the text in Notepad and copy it. Paste it into your post. Notepad has NO formatting (paragraph indents, bold, italics, fonts, etc) so it throws away all that stuff. If pasting from the Internet to Word, it goes in as the format at the location of the cursor.
