Reference > Ribbon Tabs and Dialogs > The Write Tab

The Clipboard group contains a standard set of tools for using the Windows clipboard (Copy, Cut, Paste, Paste as Text). You can use the clipboard tools for copying both content in topics and for topics and chapters in the Project Explorer, both within the same project and between multiple projects.

Remember that Drag & Drop also work both in the editor and in the Project Explorer.

What Paste as Text does:

•Paste as Text or Ctrl+Shift+V pastes copied text as plain text, without any formatting (bold, underline, graphics etc).

•Use if you want to copy text without any formatting from other topics, projects or other programs such as MS Word or a web browser.

•This feature is also useful for pasting text into paragraphs formatted with styles without transferring the style of the copied text into the target paragraph.
