Copying text from internet into Appleworks

Hello!
So, I would like to copy some exact text, same colors and fonts, from a web page on Firefox into Appleworks. When I paste the selection into a word processing document, the text comes up, but it pastes in Lucinda Grande text and with black ink. Why is this? Is there a way that I can paste the exact colors and font into a document? I looked through the Help Viewer pages, but I couldn't find anything on this topic.
Thank you!
-Kat Forster

In addition to Niel's excellent suggestions, have you tried another web browser? I think this could be a limitation of FireFox. I just copied & pasted text from a page (my home page) from both FireFox & Safari. Text from FireFox changed to Lucida Grande in all black text, text from Safari pasted as Times with underlined blue text for the links, just as they are on the page. I used this page because I know that the page has the text as a default serif font.

  • Copying text from carrier into PO

    I have set up the following process. I linked the standard partner role CR carrier to the vendor master and the purchase order to make carrier determination possible.
    Meaning in my vendor master I added a carrier, meaning when I create a PO for that vendor the carrier will be assigned. Now I have a text on carrier level "shipping instructions" which I would like to see on my PO. But when I create my PO and I check the header text "shipping instruction", the text from the vendor is copied and not the one from the carrier.
    When I check customizing I can define all kind of copying rules but I'm not able to refer or set up a copy ole based on partner roles.
    Is there a way doing this without enhancement?
    Thanks
    Walter Goris

    Thanks for your prompt answer, but the problem is that the carrier text is stored at carrier level which is only assigned with a partner role to the vendor. Creating another text on vendor level isn't a solution as I can have more than 1 carrier for a vendor. During PO creation the correct carrier will be selected from the partner role. at that moment the text from the carrier should be taken over.
    Example: vendor A has carrier X and carrier Y. Carrier X has a text X and carrier Y has a text Y.
    When I create a PO for vendor A when I save the system will bring me a pop-up to choose between carrier X & T. When I select X, the text X should appear on my PO but in my current set up I get the text from vendor A.
    You see a solution for that
    Thanks

  • Whne I copy text from firefox into excel, linenumbers are prefixed to my data. how do I stop this

    This is a problem which occurs on both the PC and MAC platforms. When I select text on a webpage in Firefox and then copy that text and try to paste it into Excel, line numbers appear at the start of each line of text. This wouldn't be a problem if the numbers were in a separate column but they are embedded in the same cell as the text which I've copied. This does not happen in other browsers.

    I can confirm it is using the single ID that is causing this issue.
    You will need to use multiple ID's however, these can share the same payment ID.
    Hope this helps!

  • Copy text from Word '03 into RH9

    I need to copy text from Word into RH in a way that does not bring in the Word codes.  I can obviously copy the text into notepad and then into RH, but I am wondering if there is a way to do it that would be similar to the "Paste Special / Unformatted Text" command in Word? 
    We cannot have the word codes in RH because we translate our user manuals and then use the translated UM text to gain discounts when we translated the html help files.  These codes throw off the matching and cause us to gain hardly any discounts.  Even simple formatting, like a bolded word puts in the word codes into the html code. I made the mistake of thinking if I unbold the word in RH then everything is fine, but little did I know the Word code was still in the HTML. 
    I appreciate your help.
    Also, I am open to suggestions on a better way to get my Word text into RH to be help.  I've started looking into Importing and Linking, but haven't figured out if they would be all that beneficial to us.

  • How copy article from Internet,paste into document,send as email attachment

    A friend has asked me to do some research for her. She has limited online hours. She wants me to copy articles from Internet, paste them into a document, then send that document AS AN ATTACHMENT to an email. I know how to copy the article, BUT I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO PASTE IT INTO A DOCUMENT, NOR DO I KNOW HOW TO SEND THAT DOCUMENT AS AN ATTACHMENT TO EMAIL.
    Normally when I copy and paste, it goes directly into the email. The goal of this method I have been asked to use, is so that the recipient can download the document and read it off line. Thanks for any advice on this.

    Others give good advice, here - but, to answer your question...
    First, you'll need to use a text editor to create the document that will contain the pasted information, and which will become the attachment to your email. TextEdit, which probably came with your Mac, will work. Whatever text editor or word processor you use, be sure to Save the document in a format she can open. Rich text is probably the safest choice, because almost any word processor can open that format.
    So, start TextEdit, and when the new document appears, select Save from the File menu. When the Save window pops up, give the new document a name, and select your Desktop for the location. Down at the bottom of the Save window, for File Format, choose Rich Text Format (RTF). If she is not on a Mac, be sure the Hide Extension box is NOT checked. Click the Save button.
    Now you can start copying and pasting from websites. The process will go like this:
    Select some text, then choose Copy from your browser's Edit menu. Next, switch to TextEdit, put your cursor where you want the text to appear, and select Paste from TextEdit's Edit menu. (If you are going to do a lot of this, it will pay to learn the keyboard shortcuts.)
    Selecting text on web pages can be somewhat frustrating. For really long selections, click once to put your cursor where you want to start copying, scroll down to where you want to end, and - while holding down the Shift key - click again; everything between the clicks will be selected. Try to select text, only. If you paste any graphics into your RTF document, TextEdit will prompt you to re-Save the document in RTFD format. If she really needs graphics, you can do that, but before you do, be sure she can open documents in that format. Most tables on web pages are impossible to copy and paste without the columns and rows going all out of alignment, so screen shots - which are images - are the best bet for tables. (If she can't open a RTFD document, you can convert the FINISHED file to a non-editable, but easily viewable, PDF document by choosing that option from the Print window. Be warned that if you create a long document with many graphics, and then convert it to PDF, the file size can get big - possibly preventing some mail servers from delivering it.)
    When you start pasting into TextEdit, you are going to get all sizes of text in various colors and fonts. If you paste text from a web-page that has white text on a black background, you will not see the white letters on your white page (tip: select the white area). After the first text is pasted into TextEdit, go to the Format menu and select Font>Show Fonts and a new tool window will appear. Select the text you just pasted, and format it to a readable size and font, then de-select the text. From now on, whenever you want to paste: from TextEdit's Edit menu, select Paste and Match Style.
    When you are ready to send the file, Save and Close your TextEdit document. From Mail's File menu, select Attach File. Navigate to your Desktop, select your document, and, if she is using Windows, check the box to Send Windows Friendly Attachments. Click Choose File, to add the attachment to your email.

  • How to prevent SAP to copy a manually typed Item text from PO into Info rec

    Hi SAP gurus
    Could you guide me the configuration  to prevent SAP to copy a manually typed Item text from PO into Info record PO text,
    Thanks
    Katta

    Charlie,
    I'm having trouble with copying text from Info Record to RFD.
    When in Spro I put the fix indicator at <*> or <N>, the the system does what it should.
    But when I put the fix indicator at < > blank, then no text is copied.
    Is this normal behaviour ?
    regards,

    Hi
    I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
    The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
    This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
    What can I do?
    thank you a lot.

    There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
    - Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
    - Adobe Reader (free)
    Which do you have? And are you a programmer?

  • How do I copy text from one layer to  another?

    I have Googled this but not a single answer seems to work.
    I am using Photoshop CS4 on OS X 10.6.7.
    OK, so  I  have a layer that  has some text in it.  I would like to  be able to  simply copy that  text  from one layer  to  another, but this seems to  be impossible as the Edit Paste menu item is grayed out after I have copied it in to the clipboard.  I can paste it into  the SAME layer, but not into another layer.
    This is how I am trying to  do  this.
    In the layer  with the text, click on the "T" icon to  the left.
    Click on the text, in the layer that I  want to  copy. 
    I select the text (either  by  clicking and dragging or pressing Command-A).
    Next I press Command-C.
    Then I  click on the layer In the Layer Panel) where I want to  paste the text.
    Pressing Command-V is impossible because the Edit-Paste menu option is grayed out!!!!
    WHY??????
    Perhaps more importantly, HOW do I copy text  from one layer to  another?

    First thing you can simply right click on the Text Layer and choose Duplicate Layer.  But that will create a new Text Lay
    er identical to the one you have.
    To answer your question in your case....  Create the Text Layer.   Make a New Layer.  Or have the layer you want to paste into visible.
    Highlight the text layer in the Layer Palette and Ctrl+Click (Win) Cmd+Click(Mac) so that you see marching ants walking around your text.
    Edit>Copy.
    Then highlight your Layer you want to paste into and hit Edit>Paste or Cmd+V / Ctrl+V.

  • Outlook 2010 freezes when pasting text from email into filename

    I use Microsoft Outlook 2010 (32-bit version), in a 64-bit computer (Dell laptop) using Windows 7 Enterprise, SP1.  (I work in a company and can't change what version of the Outlook program I am using.)  If I copy text out of an Outlook email,
    and then go to save the email by printing it to a PDF file using Adobe Acrobat X Professional, and I try to paste the copied text into the file name I am typing for the email being saved/"printed", then Outlook freezes on me.  I've
    noted that I can copy text from other programs (such as WordPerfect X3 or Adobe PDF files), and successfully paste them into the file name without Outlook freezing.  I can also copy text from an Outlook email, paste it as plain text into a WordPerfect
    X3 document, and then copy that same text again out of the WordPerfect X document, and I am able to successfully paste the text into the file name of the email I want to save without Outlook freezing (i.e., moving the text out of Outlook and then back
    again to Outlook somehow sanitized the text so it wouldn't freeze Outlook).  Note that my office switched from Windows XP to Windows 7 a few weeks ago, and I also received a clean installation of Office at that time.  This problem did not exist prior
    to the change to Windows 7.  Does anyone know what is causing the problem?  Is there some setting I need to change in Outlook?  (Maybe I had the Outlook setting correct in the old installation of Outlook, but the new Outlook installation wiped
    out my prior settings, and the new default setting recently installed is creating the problem?)

    Hi,
    First please make sure your Office is up-to-date.
    I suspect this may be related to some 3rd-party add-ins or the security software, first please run Outlook in Safe Mode to determine if 3rd-party add-ins are related:
    Press Win + R and type “outlook.exe /safe” in the blank box, then press Enter.
    If there’s no problem copying and pasting in Safe Mode, disable the suspicious add-ins to verify which add-ins caused this issue.
    Please also disable the anti-virus program temporarily to check if this makes a difference.

  • I am just about giving up!  I have upgraded Pages to 0.9 4.3.  Now when i copy text from an incoming email and paste it it pastes in as an Object and I can't work on it.

    I am just about giving up!  I have upgraded Pages to 0.9 (4.3).  Now when I copy text from an incoming email and paste it into Pages it pastes in as an Object and I can't work on it.  It has a border round it and corner markers.  I have never had this problem before.  I have looked at every conceivable thing but cannot find how to get rid of this Object and just paste in the wanted text.  If I fiddle and fiddle within this text I can eventually get a cursor and work on the text - but how on earth can I get rid of the surrounding box?  
    I don't know if this is at all clear but I can't think of any other way to describe this - but it looks like this in Pages with corner and top, bottom and side markers.

    I have also discovered that I don''t need to hold down Option when I go to Save to get Save As -  I can hold down 4 keys (shift, option, command and S) and it will bring up Save As!!

  • On the IPad, can I copy text from an online source then paste to Pages?

    Many times from ebooks as part of my own personal research,
    I like to copy text from various sources
    then later review the text of the copied information to render my own conclusions.
    How do I copy from online sources and books and then paste into Pages?

    Only if the iBook is NOT DRM protected, whch means no for the majority of titles in iTunes. You can Copt from your own PDFs or from something like the iOS User Guide, some free titles, but not from most things.
    You will find that to be the case with most other book apps as well.

  • Cp5 - Pasting text from Notepad into a text box

    I posted this message in the "Getting Started Forum" but there isn't a whole lot of activity in that forum.
    Hopefully someone can help me because I have a lot of text to paste into a lesson.
    This  seems like such an elementary requirement and I am almost certain that I  have done this before but...for some reason, copying text from Windows  Notepad into a Captivate 5 text box just isn't working today.
    Basically, the paste option is simply not available!
    Yes, I can copy paste into other applications; Captivate is the only application that is blocking this Windows function.
    If  I insert a Text Entry Box, I am able to paste single lines of text  (from Notepad) but obviously this isn't going to work as a text box.
    Is this by design or has something gone haywire?
    Question, how do I get pre-written text (i.e. from Notepad) into Captivate?
    Thanks

    Shawn,
    I have had that happen to me too.  I am always copying and pasting into my Captivate projects.  But sometimes the paste option is just not available.  What I have done, is to save everything and close the application and start it again.  Seems there's a lot of little irritating things like that with Captivate, that's corrected with a restart.  Hope this helps!
