Copy and paste without codes
If pasting text from other sources, such as Word, PDF, the web, or other places, is leaving your document messed up with a lot of unwanted codes, WordPerfect has built-in ways to easily solve this problem.
Once your text is copied to the clipboard, right click your mouse in the place in your document where you want the text inserted. This will open up a menu, which includes the choices "Paste," "Paste without Font/Attributes," and "Paste Unformatted Text."
Paste, of course, will insert the text in your document as you copied it.
Paste without Font/Attributes will insert the text into your document having stripped out the font attributes of the other source, while using your current font. This method will preserve other formatting, such as paragraph structure and line spacing.
Paste Unformatted Text will insert the text in your document with all formatting removed, and basically leaving just the paragraph breaks.
Something to lookout for: The last two methods also remove bold, underline, italics, redline and strikeout formatting. So, if you work with documents, such as legal briefs and documents, which require these attributes, you will need to go back and put those in.
