Nope...that's what I said when Dian originally started this thread. As far as I know, the best way to copy from Word to FP is to copy to notepad first, then copy to FP. Most of my ABC writers send me their articles in Word docs, so I copy them to notepad, then copy to FP and insert the graphics manually, otherwise I end up with totally messy code and all the graphics are xml, which then prompts some people to download some xml addin or something when they try to view these pages, so I don't want that cuz it freaks the newbies out LOL Linda Publisher ~ ABC ~ All 'Bout Computers Owner ~ Linda's Computer Stop http://personal-computer-tutor.com FREE MS Office eBook Tutorial http://personal-computer-tutor.com/library.htm -----Original Message----- From: mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of James S.

It has all the characteristics (e.g., lots of "span class" of text developed in Word and then moved to FP as HTML) So . . . given this, Michele asked how I'd proceed One way is to copy all the text from FP into Notepad and then copy it back and then use FP to change fonts and coloring. Does anyone else have a simpler "trick"? James S.
