    Paste From Word is not working (All Handling Options)

    When you paste a few paragraphs of formatted text from word then spaces are being removed from the text.  If you view the HTML then a line break (not a BR or P tag) is being added to after certain words in the HTML code.  As there is no space before the break and the next word starts on the line below, then when rendered the two words are butted together.
     
    Therefore when clients paste text from word then every 10th word or so is being joined to the previous one.

    Our clients are very upset as they effectively cannot paste from word.
     
    This is repeatable in:

    and also for the paste options at:

    Please fix this bug urgently!
     
    Thanks,
    Marcus

    Marcus,
     
    We cannot reproduce this issue in the above example.
     
    Can you tell me what kind of work document you have? Is this Word 2007, 2003 or 2000?
     
    Can you send the word document which has this issue to kenneth@CuteSoft.net and Adam@CuteSoft.net?

    We're experiencing the same issue. And I also tested with the demos on your website. if you try to copy and paste any document with an ordered list and some basic formatting? You simply get horrible results.

    Hi Adam,

     

    My clients run into the same problem (since version 6.xx has been installed) and I can reproduce it with Word 2003 and Word 2010 (I haven't tried other versions yet).

     

    The best way to reproduce it is to open a new empty Word document. Paste or type this content into it:

    One two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve thirteen fourteen fifteen sixteen seventeen eighteen nineteen twenty twenty-one twenty-two twenty-three twenty-four twenty-five twenty-six twenty-seven twenty-eight twenty-nine thirty!

     

    Select and copy the above content from Word.  Then open a new incognito window in Internet Explorer (ctrl-shft-P), this simulates a first time visit to the page containing the CuteSoft editor.

     

    Open the demo of the CuteSoft WYSIWYG-editor for .Net on http://cutesoft.net/ i.e.: http://cutesoft.net/example/general.aspx

    Select all content in the editor and delete it. Press ctrl-v to paste the contents of the clipboard.

     

    The result will be like this:

    One twothree four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve thirteen fourteenfifteen sixteen seventeen eighteen nineteen twenty twenty-one twenty-twotwenty-three twenty-four twenty-five twenty-six twenty-seven twenty-eighttwenty-nine thirty!

    As you can see, some of the words have been concatenated, which is unwanted behaviour.

     

    I hope this helps you fix it! Note: after pasting with one of the Paste-buttons, the paste function worked properly, even with ctrl-v...
