Copying text from word to mail???

Single space will show up as double space?? /trying to copy a single space document in word and paste into mail, it will show up double spaced,
Can spacing be adjusted in the Mail????

It's a kludge, but when I want to make sure that all formatting is removed from the contents of the clipboard, so that I can paste plain text, and the app I'm pasting into doesn't have a "Paste and Match Style" option (or something similar), I open up TextWrangler, paste there, then select all and copy. Now your clipboard contains plain text, no styling, and it'll match the style of the existing text wherever you paste it.

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.

Problem copying text from word to dreamweaver

dreamweaver, for some strange reason it missed a complete section
in the middle, 2 paragraphs gone... no errors... no blank spaces,
just would not copy and paste the section, everything b4 and after
was fine, the only way to correct this was to copy to
textpad/notepad first and then recopy and paste..
anybody have any ideas ?
anyone seen this happen b4?
cheers
Pythagonal

nope, there didnt seem to be any special formatting in the
word doc, just a straight forward press release, two of them
actually and they both had sections that didn't copy and paste.
what was very strange was it was sections in the middle of
the docs, and wasnt the same in both, was 2 different areas in
each, just when u copy'd and pasted it gave nothing..
and ive never seen anything like it b4,
ive just upgraded to CS4 a few weeks back and this is the
first time ive noticed it, ill keep my eye out and see if its
somethng to do with the way word is formatting stuff..
cheers

Problems Copying Text from Word 2008 to InDesign CS3

When I copy/paste text from Word into InDesign, the text pastes as an image. If I draw a text box in InDeign and paste the text in there, the same thing happens and the box is locked in position. I'm pretty sure there is a setting in Word I have to change, but I've tried everything! Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Why don't you try File > Place and place the .doc file? (Probably not too many Word experts in an Adobe forum.)

Copying text from Word

Hello
Does anybody know a shortcut or function for copying text
from a word doc without copying the size, colour and type of font
used. Not sure if it's possible to do or not but would save me a
bit of time from having to change the text to the way I want it.
Thanks in advance.
Andy

Yet another solution (not necessarily the best). You could
write a simple
script that sets a cast members font, size, color, etc. You
could make it so
that it takes a range of cast members. So the process for
example would be
that you copy/paste text into any number of cast members then
just call the
script from the message window.
--movieScript
on fixText firstMemberNum, lastmemberNum
repeat with i = firstMemberNum to lastmemberNum
member(i).font = "verdana"
member(i).fontsize = 30
--etc
end repeat
end
--called from message window
fixText(1,100)

Copying text from Word converted from PDF

How do I copy text from a word file that I converted from a PDF?

Problem pasting text from Word into Mail

When I compose text in Word and paste it into Mail, paragraphs are separated by spaces that weren't in the original Word document and I have to do a lot of work to get rid of them. If I compose or paste the text in TextEdit and then copy the message into Mail, there's no problem. Is there a fix so I can just compose my messages in Word and then transfer them into Mail?

It happens when I use past and match style as well. Any other ideas?
Last month I started a message thread on what may be the same issue:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11083007
There's a mention there of the Mail menu option Format -> Make Plain Text, which may help you.
I filed a "bug report" with Apple (http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html) about quirky spacing in Mail messages and the lack of any editing feature to control such spacing. Maybe you'd want to do the same.

Is it possible to copy text from word, paste it in InD and bring the footnotes with it?

Is it possible to bring in footnotes from Word without linking to the word file?
Thanks for the help!

Is it possible to bring in footnotes from Word without linking to the word file?
No -- copying from Word to InDesign uses the regular interapplication clipboard, and is copied as plain unformatted text.
"Without linking to the Word file" ... well, it is a user preference (in the Preferences panel, no less) to link to text documents or not. I think you could defeat the automatic linking if you import the entire file into a new ID document and then copy out just the part you need (and that would include footnotes as well as any and all other formatting).

I can't copy and paste text from Word to a Facebook Post since I've been using Firefox. Why am I getting the background code? Internet Explorer lets me copy text from Word to Facebook.

I type my text in Word then open Facebook. I press Control-C to copy this text into my Facebook post and the result is that a lot of background code shows up.

I would use the older version so you can continue working while troubleshooting continues in CC2014, if you haven't uninstalled it yet (and it didn't also lose the ability to copy/paste).
Have you tried any of the usual suspects?

Copy text from word without track changes

Version: Word 14.0.6129.5000 32 bit
OS: Win 7
Hi -
We receive tons of word-documents to our newspaper, and many of these are copied and pasted into incopy. Some of the editors also use track changes in word heavily.
The ordinary ctrl+a ctrl+c ctrl-v copies track-changes-info. (This also apply if we copy to notepad etc.)
Is there an easy way to copy just the text without all the track chages-info, just the final text?
This is a big problem for us, and I haven't found a quick and easy solution on the web.
Regards -
Johannes
(Sorry for bad english)

Hi Hans,
I just retested this Copy/Paste of Tracked Changes and Comments under Word 2011 for the Mac and Word 2010 for the PC. The results vary.
Regarding the PC with 2010 version.
Regardless of the Show Tracking settings in the Source document, the tracked changes DO NOT transfer from the source Word document to the destination Word document.
Regardless of the Show Tracking setting in the Source document, comments ALWAYS carry over into the destination Word document.
In all cases, source document tracked changes ALWAYS transfer to Note documents.
Paste Unformatted DOES NOT eliminate the tracked changes and comments when pasting to a Word destination document
Regarding Word 2011 on the Mac
Regardless of the Show Tracking settings in the source document, the tracked changes DO NOT transfer from the source Word document to the destination Word document.
Regardless of the Show Tracking setting in the Source document, comments ALWAYS carry over to the destination Word document.
In all cases, source document tracked changes DO NOT transfer to Text (txt) documents.
Paste Unformatted ALWAYS eliminates the tracked changes and comments when pasted into the destination Word document.
On both versions the default settings for Smart Copy/Paste and Cut, Copy, Paste we in effect. All test files where xml formats. (docx)

Very slow copying text from microsoft word

Any idea why copying text from word (office 2004) should be v slow? Copying same text in OS9 no problem (am currently copying text from client supplied documents into other applications ie. Quark, so having to go to another machine running previous OS + apps. seems a bit 'unnecessary'!)
PowerBook G4 17" Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Use the smart paste (Ctrl + Shift v) and select plain text only. Otherwise, you're pulling in Word's formatting when you do a regular paste.

It's the PDF.
Usually, you can copy text out of a PDF, but there is no guarantee *at all*. Older software used to take shortcuts to subset fonts: first character it encountered got coded as #1, the next as #2, etc. etc. If you do a search & replace of each of the nonsense characters, you'll slowly see the original text appearing (thst's not as simple as it sounds, though).
A similar "problem" is that sometimes spaces don't get copied (there is no need for a "Space Character" in a PDF), and that you cannot copy contiguous lines of text as a single paragraph. All of it is because a PDF is not intended nor designed to be re-used after creation.
If you really need this text and don't want to type it in, try to get hold of the original file.

How to import text from Word and retain italics and/or indented text?

Is it possible to import or copy text from Word into InDesign and retain italics or text that is indented in the Word version?

just wanna edit wrote:
Thank you, I think I understand the idea of "place" (which is what I would call "paste")
The two are not at all the same. Paste involves copying text to the clipboard and then pasting from the clipboard. Place is an import operation.
