Illustrator :: Paste Text Without Formatting?
May 12, 2013
When I copy some text from one part of a layout to another, it retains the font settings of the original text. How can I have the text just be text and take on the format of the paragraph I'm pasting into?
For instance, I copy some words into a headline, I don't want them to be 12 pt Times, so I have to re-apply the formatting.
Currently I paste into an external text editor and copy again so that it is just text without formatting. Is there a way to do this in Illustrator?

When I copied text over from Photoshop to illustrator it kept the text formatting. For example the font, font size, color. Now when I use CC and copy paste text from PS to AI, all text formatting is lost and everything is placed as whatever the current AI text setting is.
HOWEVER, pasting from AI to PS WORKS as it should. All font/text formatting is maintained. Is this a bug or is there a setting for this that I just never knew about?

In the past day I have run into a problem whenever I copy and paste any text inside Illustartor CS6. If I copy text from outside Illustator and paste in a file, everything is ok. But if I copy text from inside an AI file and paste into another AI file or to the same file, I get a bunch of extra text that gets displayed before the pasted text. In the example below I copied and pasted the text "This is a test" within the same AI file, and got the a bunch of information above the text.

I have a layer with some paths and lines of text. I copied some of the paths and text and tried to paste in another layer or document; the paths are not pasted and all the text becomes a single line. When I copied only the paths, it is pasted correctly. If I copied only the text and tried to paste in another layer or document, all the text becomes a single line.
If I drag the selection from one layer to another using the panel, it works. If I drag the selection from the artboard to another document, it works. But these operations sometimes are not convenient. What I would like is to copy the items, target a layer in another document and paste there. With a large document with dozens of layers and a lot of text the drag and drop solution is not feasible.

Illustrator CS5.5 on Mac: When I copy text from one Illustrator document and paste it in a different document, the text canges to Myriad (the deafult font). Is there a setting somewhere to preserve the formatting? Even pasting into an existing text style still changes the font.

I am trying to do a quite simple thing in Illustrator that I used to know. But, I forgot how to realise it. Back in the days, on Illustrator CS2, I was able to paste a shape/brush/symbol (one of these) into a text field using the Type on a path tool. What I want to achieve is that I got a shape that I would like to use as a character so that I could paste it on a circle stroke. I don't want to use the brush to use the shape/brush as a stroke color because then the shape won't rotate to fit the circle correctly. The only way I am able to get the result I want for now is using the Rotation tool by putting the shape's rotation axis on the middle of a background circle's axis but this is pretty approximate as a method.

If I copy object and text at the same time, it will only paste the text and the object is disappear, but it's no problem if I copy them separately. Besides, If I copy multiple text objects, they will be combined to 1 text object and the font will be changed when I paste.

The problem just came today while i tried to copy/paste text from Ms Word. As I usually do it asks me about formatting options before pasting text but today its not working the way it should. It simply pastes plain text without all formatting I did to my document in Ms Word. I even tried to repair my software but nothing worked.

I know I can rotate text with the rotate command or from the properties palette, but if I'm editing text and the text formatting toolbar is displayed, why don't I have the ability to modify the rotation right there? How do I get it there? Can I customize this toolbar?

We are having problems with text in Illustrator CS6.
1. When we copy / paste text within illustrator all color information is lost.
2. When we save documents in Illustrator CS6 then re-open text with color attributes changes to different random colors!!
For example: If we save an Illustrator document with a paragraph of text that is part red and part black when we re-open the same paragraph might be all gray, or orange or (you pick a color).

I was trying to duplicate the star wars scrolling into space text movie demo in PS CS4. I finally accomplished it.
But to adjust the text, it requires the FULL text format. I had the full format button in view, but could not use it. The only buttons that worked were left, center, and right. None of the buttons on the right would toggle.
I used the key shortcut CTRL-SHFT-F to get it to work.
I highlighted the text and nothing could move the focus to the FULL format button..

When text is pasted from one CS5 document into another and is inserted into the existing text in the destination doc, is comes in as a size different from either the source or distination size. Both docs are of the same resolution. The text being transferred is acquiring new formatting somehow. These are older docs, I don’t know what I might have done with/to them previously.

I am trying to copy and paste text in Photoshop CS6 and I am losing the oh-so-valuable formatting. I am referring to two boxes side by side in Photoshop that contain text.
I love the text in the first box, but when I try to duplicate the formatting in the second box right next to it, the text looks completely different. And, when I try to just paste some of the text from the first box to the second box, the 20 px text suddenly becomes 96.3 px text.
Even though I go through all of the formatting options available and duplicate what was in the first box, the text in the second box ends up looking nothing like the first box even though they contain exactly the same formatting, font type - everything.

I have an IDW file that has a corresponding .IPT Everytime you import a .ipt onto a sheet, a text accompanies it. I want to write a macros to edit this text.
As an usual practise it gives "VIEW, DESCRIPTION and SCALE" .
Instead of VIEW , I want the code to pick something from the i-properties.
Eg. Instead of VIEW, it shopuld write the STOCK NUMBER from the iproperties of the part.
Is this possible ?

Revit 2011 text editing
How do I keep the formatting stable in the text editing. I have columns separated by tabs. Every time I click to edit the text Revit re-arranges the paragraph. I can't keep the format stable so the columns read correctly. I never had this problem with CAD.
I feel like a Beta tester right now trying to produce permit documents on a program that isn't finished yet.

I'm trying to automate an email we have to send upon job completion, I've started with the Curtis's ilogic from . I also found info HERE. I'm almost there, but I can't seem to find the correct format to edit the text size/Font/Bolding required. The email should look like:
CRITICAL ACTION: Replace old revisions on the shop floor & at vendor with the new revisions and destroy the old revisions.
WORK ORDER #: XXXXX/X Customer / Description
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES:
This e-mail is to inform you that the drawing(s) listed below are approved:
Drawing/Part Number
Rev
Description
Status
HIGH
Status / Required Action:
LOW / No active quote(s) or current need. (To: )
MED / Need to quote or generate purchase order. (To: )
HIGH / There is a work order in Progress. Destroy all copies of obsolete drawings and replace with latest revision. (To: )
SALES / This is a sales drawing. (To: )
All drawing files referenced in this e-mail have been loaded onto network folder:
\ServerengineeringCOMMONParts Folder RELEASED PDFs
Current Ilogic:
modelName = IO.Path.GetFileName(ThisDrawing.ModelDocument.FullFileName)Dim oOApp Dim oOMailoOApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")oOMail = oOApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)Dim oWorkOrder As StringDim oCustomer As StringDim [code]......
I'm trying to get there by declaring Fontsize, then .Body.Fontsize = 16, but that isn't working. Any link to a page that would give me the correct format to change font size for this? I'd also like to get the table lines around the drawing/Part Number, but that isn't critical.

Users of Excel will know that you can ask that software to automatically change the color of text depending on its value.
I wonder is this possible in AutoCAD ( Issue release 13 )
The task I have to process is that I have a survey full of spot levels. It would be great of there was a lisp or script or some other device that would change the colour of the spot levels depending on the numerical value of the number.
E.g. - all values less than 100.00 - turn blue
all values equal to or greater than 100.00 - turn yellow

2.) What is the best format to to send to my client if he plans to use this logo for future web use? Simple RGB, or should I output on Save for Web and Devices for other options such as a GIF or PNG-24?

I have copied a bunch of text into a text frame in CorelDRAW X3. Now I want to give style to each of the headings in the text.
In Microsoft Word there is a "copy formatting" option, allowing me to copy font size, colour, style etc. from one text portion to other text portions in a snap.
Is the same possible with text in CorelDRAW?
CorelDRAW Graphic Suite X6.4 @ Windows 7/Windows 8 - 64 Bit, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012

I just realized that I have quite a number of text instances (261!) that require that I change the color of the text. All of these instances are associated with multileaders and but are only a portion of the text associated with each multileader.

Is there a way to incorporate the functionality of acad mechanical whereby you can specify the length of text but have it fit within a specific area?
So far I haven't been able to figure out how to get a description to work well with my title block. If I use the fit option, all of the text is stretched, which I don't want. I want it to be normal until it doesn't fit anymore into the predefined area and then have it fit.

I was telling an engineer the other day that I could probably insert his general notes from MS Word into AutoCAD and create nice clean pdf files of the CD sheets that he could email to clients. On second inspection I could tell that, yes I could copy, paste it in, but fixing all the formatting would be a nightmare. Is there any way to retain the formatting such as numbering, tabs etc. when bringing it in to AutoCAD? The idea is to have it be an editable document, so I don't want to just bring it in as a OLE object, pdf or scan.
