"Apple-stlye-span" style?
I have noticed that when I paste web content sometimes onto a Word document,
the "style" (in Word terms, instead of Normal or Body Text) is something it refers to as "apple-style-span-etc." Now I promise I haven't done any unauthorized surfing of the Apple website. What is this style? I'm asking because often I have to correct it--it is slightly off from the normal font, coloring, or whatever... I'm wondering if there is any way to keep Word from pasting content that is in this style.... -- Paul Office 2007 XP SP3 Dell Inspiron 1501 |

Instead of just Pasting, do Paste Special Unformatted Text. It then
takes on the formatting of whatever you're pasting it into.

"Apple-stlye-span" style?
Thanks. That is one option, although when I paste large amounts of text, I
find after pasting as unformatted text, I have to go back and reformat the material (including paragraph spacing, etc.) so this apple style would be a bit more helpful for me than unformatted. Perhaps another way to put my question--is there any way to force word to paste text as a particular style? I have just started using Body Text and any content that I'd paste would eventually be formatted like that. Or would I have to set up a macro for that? -- Paul Office 2007 XP SP3 Dell Inspiron 1501 "grammatim" wrote in message ... Instead of just Pasting, do Paste Special Unformatted Text.

Reformatting shouldn't be more than a matter of Select All (Ctrl-A)
and apply the Body Text style? On Mar 31, 7:02*am, "Paul" wrote: Thanks.

Doing that would wipe out my headings.

Well ... you did say "any content." But surely it's easier to remark a
few headings than to select all the miscellaneous stuff individually.
