Copy Text Word For Mac - moodgooddomains’s diary

Being able to copy a text style in macOS is extremely helpful. If you don't copy and paste the text style, you're just copying the text, which means you might end up with different types of styles and formatting in the same email, which doesn't usually look very nice. I DO NOT USE different formats or fonts and the document i am copying from is another Mac Word document. I am trying to get just the text from the other document. I don't know where the line of little squares comes from -- they are not in the document i am trying to copy from.

Mac users leveraging Microsoft Office 365 should be pleasantly surprised to learn they're eligible to begin using Microsoft's new Office 2016 for Mac applications. Numerous innovations are included with Microsoft's newest version of Word for the Mac. Office 365 users can learn more about the new version of Office, and how to download it, in my previous post: 'What's new in Office 2016 for Mac?'

Word 2016 for the Mac includes a new Design tab. The tab aims to make it easier for Mac users to quickly access preconfigured design elements and produce professional appearing documents without having to possess any significant graphics or design expertise. Pre-formatted templates, color combinations, complete themes, and individual fonts all appear on the Design tab.

Smart Lookup provides contextually relevant information for highlighted text, so authors can access additional web-based data. For example, highlighting the word 'Microsoft' within a document, then right-clicking and selecting Smart Lookup, generates a window that reveals Bing search results. In this case, you'll see a company summary, the company's Wikipedia page, and Microsoft's official website all listed within the top search results. The Smart Lookup feature is also available on the Tools menu.

Multiple team members can simultaneously create and edit a single new Word document. When a user working on a file saves any changes, the platform generates a notification that highlights the changes for the other users. There's also support for threaded comments, so collaborators and reviewers can conduct a conversation regarding a document's proposed changes. This innovation makes it easier for authors, editors, and other team members to directly address others' comments during the editing process, thereby eliminating confusion and enhancing collaboration.

Some sharing options were available in previous Word versions, but it's even easier in Word 2016 to share files. Sharing options are found on the File menu.

Mac users now find their OneDrive cloud-based file share listed directly within Word, too. This helps leverage Dropbox and iCloud for storing, backing up, and sharing Word documents. Selecting File and choosing Save As presents several options, depending on the cloud services configured on the Mac. Users wishing to save files to their OneDrive account can select the Online Locations button that appears within the Save As window.

Mail Merge is also improved. The Mailings tab makes it easier to connect Word, Excel, and Outlook to generate and distribute mass mailings. Icon options are included for creating envelopes and labels. Mac users will find additional options for generating mass mailings using Apple Address Book or FileMaker Pro.

A new Styles Pane will appear on the right-hand side of the screen when it's selected, which simplifies the ability to apply styles to text. To select it, simply click the Styles pane icon from the Home tab. Lastly, a new Navigation Pane helps users navigate documents by the type of change (insertion, deletion, etc.), which also aids collaboration between multiple authors. To access the Navigation Pane, click the View tab and select the Navigation Pane checkbox.

Are you tired of pasting text into Word, only to find that the pasted text included colors, formatting, links, and more from its original source? Here’s how you can keep pasted text from messing up your documents.

By default, Word will keep the formatting of text and other content you past into a document, including links, colors, size, font, and more. This can be annoying at best and at worst, can mess up the other formatting in your document.

If you copied a large amount of text or images from a site, or if your internet connection happens to be slow, Word may even freeze temporarily while it’s retrieving and pasting the content. That’s no fun.

Word does have one saving feature: you can click the little popup under pasted text and select Plain Text to get just the text and none of the formatting. However, that’s 2 extra clicks. If you just want to paste the text, and nothing else, you’ll want to change the default setting. Thankfully, it’s easy. If you just pasted text, just click the popup and select Set Default Paste.

Alternately, open the Options pane in Word manually from the File backstage menu or the Office orb in Word 2007.

Select the Advanced tab, then scroll down to the Cut, copy, and paste settings section.

Here you can change a wide variety of pasting options. To switch to pasting text only by default, select Keep Text Only in the drop-down menus. You can change the settings for all options, or just change the ones you wish. We often want to keep the formatting if we’re pasting within the same document, so we left the first option at default, then switched all the others to Keep Text Only.

Once you’ve changed the settings, try pasting some text to make sure it works right. Now it should just paste the text, even if your paste included an image, link, or other text formatting. This is great for the default setting, and makes everything much quicker.

Or, if you decide you want to include the formatting, links, or other content from the paste, just click the popup and select Keep Source Formatting. This way, you’ll only have to click extra if you need the extra content.

Now you can save time and get just the text you want from websites, other programs, and more without waiting for a large paste and taking the time to tweak it.
