mistfall Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 I'm finding that when I copy text from a word processing document and paste it into a Affinity Publisher text frame, I get the paragraph style of the source document rather than the style I assigned to the text frame using a Master. I have to re-apply my Style every time I paste in text. What am I missing? Is there a "Paste and Match Style" option somewhere that I am overlooking? If so, it doesn't seem to be in the Edit menu where I would expect to find it. I apologize if this has been previously answered. I did a search and checked the FAQs, and hunted on Google but found nothing relevant to my question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashf Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Try to use "Paste Special" and select "Unicode text" that pasting without style. sfriedberg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try this, place the text caret in the text frame and choose Edit > Paste Inside. When I do that the Frame's Paragraph style is applied. Expletive, now it doesn't work.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistfall Posted June 12, 2020 Author Share Posted June 12, 2020 Thank you! Unfortunately there is no option for "Paste Special" > Unicode text that I can see. Paste Without Format seems to do the trick! Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
