atw: Re: MS WORD: Where Is Default Paste Style Set?

Hi Janice,

When cutting and pasting into Word I recommend Edit>Paste
Special>Unformatted Text.  This will bring the content in without
formatting and make them the style of your document.

I suspect the page you are cutting from might have Lucida set as a style
in the HTML code.

Subject: atw: MS WORD: Where Is Default Paste Style Set?

I rarely use Word but am stuck using it for a home project. One of the
things that is a niggling annoyance is that if I copy a URL or quote
from Firefox into Word, it's pasted as Lucida Grande 13 point instead of
the document default font. I can't find where this style is set. Any
help greatly appreciated!
