How do you copy plain text from a Word 2007 document?
Hi turnsouth, hope you are well.
Perhaps you might like to try performing a Save As... to the document then select the Plain Text (*.txt) from the Save as Type drop down box when saving the document. This will allow you to save a copy of the document in plain text format. From here you could then copy the contents of the plain text document to the clipboard to do with as you wish. Hope this helps, or you are able to find your answer in here. -- Kind regards Melanie Remen "turnsouth" wrote: I was wondering if there is a way to copy only plain text from a Word document, without all of the formatting information? |
