Copy paste problems

7 years ago
Whenever I copy anything from word into the editor, it replaces all apostrophes and quotation marks with a whole bunch of these: ’. They're not there at first but appear when I switch between edit and preview, the string of symbols growing longer every time I switch between them. Is there any way of fixing this that doesn't require going through it and replacing every single apostrophe? It also removes spaces between paragraphs. I can fix this by putting < br/ >< br/ > between paragraphs, but its a little tedious and it would be helpful if there was some easier way of fixing it.

The only way to get around it is to turn the rich text editor off. Copy/paste tends to work with no problems when it isn't on.

Ah okay, thanks. All working now.

You could probably copy everything from word into notepad, then copy and paste that into the rich text editor as well.

Either way, resolved.
