Why do I have to paste my text without formatting?

When pasting formatted text from another text editing program into the Editor, the different formatting layers may interfere with the final lay out of your press release. Unfortunately, we can no longer guarantee that your press release will be delivered to the recipient in the correct manner when pasting with formatting. For example, it may happen that recipients see the text in your press release in italics, while it should be straight.

  • Windows:

    • Right click: "paste without formatting"

    • Keyboard shortcut: ctrl + shift + v

  • Apple:

    • Right click: "modify paste style"
