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.



Thanks!! That did it. I'm so unfamiliar with Word that
I didn't know that option existed - most of the other
word processing programs with which I'm familiar use
Paste Special to give you *more* styling!

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



I'm pretty sure that the Lucida isn't coming from
the source because it happens with text from different
web sites. And it's not my default font in Firefox,
either.

Thanks very much for responding and solving the problem!
