Use the Paste Special dialog box to specify formatting options for text that you paste from other applications or for text that you paste from within Dreamweaver.
Text Only lets you paste unformatted text. If the original text is formatted, all formatting, including line breaks and paragraphs, will be removed.
Text with Structure lets you paste text that retains structure, but does not retain basic formatting. For example, you can paste text and retain the structure of paragraphs, lists, and tables, without retaining bold, italics, and other formatting.
Text with Structure Plus Basic Formatting lets you paste both structured and simple HTML-formatted text (e.g., paragraphs and tables, as well as text formatted with the b
, i
, u
, strong
, em
, hr
, abbr
, or acronym
tag).
Text with Structure Plus Full Formatting lets you paste text that retains all structure, HTML formatting, and CSS styles.
NOTE |
|
The Full Formatting option cannot retain CSS styles that come from an external style sheet, nor can it retain styles if the application from which you are pasting does not retain styles upon pasting to the Clipboard. |
This option is disabled if you have selected Text Only.
