Forum:Copy and paste from word

If you to copy and paste from MS word becase you need the spelling and grammer feature I need you need to do all you edits in the Word. Fix the spelling and grammer. Do a copy all and paste in it in Note pad txt doc. Word has alot of bagage being copied you don't see unit you try to edit it in the web page and it wll not let you edit with standard editor. It will give you a message that you us ethe rich text editing becaue of special code. I had a web page which about 3000 bytes and it jumped over 6000 bytes after I did a copy and paste. That when I saw all this extra code I didn't type in. When you edit the page all you see is the source code with tons of extra web stuff in it. By doing a copy all from Note pad doc which is dump doc editor with no bells and whistles you don't all the extras stuff Word has behine the scenes. I'm not big in raw source text editing yet.

Yes it a three step process but you can do all your editin in Word with spell check and grammer check with out being on line. Dump it to Note pad and then copy it ti the web edit page.


 * I'm not totally sure what you're after, but I do know that the rich text editor sometimes does stuff up by adding lots of extra code. Obviously, copying from Word is not too good an idea. Which browser do you use? Some browsers, like Google Chrome, have an in-built spelling and grammar checker, which might be able to help you. The 888th Avatar   (talk)  01:09, April 11, 2010 (UTC)
