Copying text from one location and pasting it into the CMS can be very helpful. If your moving a site from the old system to the new, or if you like to type all of your content into a program like Microsoft Word before putting it in the CMS, copying and pasting as plain text will save you from having to retype all of your content due to other code and formatting from your source document. If you copy and paste directly from a program like word you could end up copying and pasting formatting that will ruin the look of your site. Here's how to correctly copy and paste text into the CMS.
