andrecampeau Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 When I copy a text box in one document and paste it in another Publisher document, each line of the text box is broken into individual boxes. And when I drag the corner of a box, it stretches the text when it's suppose to expand the box. And it's the same with a picture box. It's broken in several elements, like stroke, picture, shadow. Is this a bug or am I missing something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrecampeau Posted April 29, 2021 Author Share Posted April 29, 2021 That's not what happens to me. The odd time, the text box will be fine but with the headers I paste, the letter are all in separate boxes. If I do a Paste without formatting, it works somewhat better but the strokes are increase and text wrap is increased dramatically. BTW, I'm on a Mac running OS11.3.

walt.farrell Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 What kind of document are you copying from, and what application is displaying it? Can you give us some screenshots, or a sample document to play with? Part of what you're describing sounds like you're working with Artistic Text, not Frame Text.

andrecampeau Posted April 29, 2021 Author Share Posted April 29, 2021 Here is a jpeg of a sample document. I thought it was a corrupt document but this happens even with a new document and Copy and Paste within the same document too. Very odd. And I'm using text boxes, not Artistic text.

walt.farrell Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 It would help to have the original document you're copying from, and the document you pasted into. Also, it's usually better to provide screenshots of the full application window, including the Layers panel. But this one is complex enough that it may need the actual sample documents.

andrecampeau Posted April 29, 2021 Author Share Posted April 29, 2021 I found the culprit. I was using the software CopyPaste Pro which gives me multiple pasteboards. When I quit that software, all is normal. Thanks for offering to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
