Pasting MS Word Content

My client does the paste with word just fine, but when she goes in and "edit's" a word or two directly in the CMS editor the text outputted to the website is not the same "font/style" as the rest of the text.

Is there an easier way around this versus copying the entire text from the editor, pasting back into Word, making the change(s), copying all again, going back to the editor again, re-pasting all the text in again, saving, and hoping there isn't any weird characters showing up that will need to be found in the editor (always invisible in the editor)?

Seems like too many steps must be done just to make a simple change to one or two words.

Hi Mike,

Yes, there's a few different ways around that.

You click the "Paste As Text" button to get text only - that button looks like a clipboard with a "T" on it.

Next, you can select the content and click "Remove Formatting". This wysiwyg button is on the top left of the button bar and looks like an eraser.

Also, in the latest version (v1.15) Word content is automatically cleaned up even if you don't click the "Paste from Word" button.

Hope that helps! Would one of those options work for you?

Thanks for the quick response Dave,

Actually your earlier post of: Microsft and International character sets display properly. To do this use the xml standard:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />

I thought you meant change the php code I inserted only, but when I did this to the top of the page all is well.

Thanks!

So it's working now? Great! :)

Let me know if you need anything else. :)

LIKE A CHARM!

I think this should be the first (and certainly the easiest) check for anyone having the same problem.

Thanks,

Mike
