Using the PASTETEXT option as the only option for pasting from Word an extra line break is inserted immediately after the last text in paragraph.
For example:
Quisque laoreet, nunc sit amet tristique sollicitudin, metus erat varius diam, nec vulputate nibh felis at lectus. Aliquam luctus. Mauris porta rutrum ipsum. Phasellus sodales tortor. </br>
</br>
I would like to be able to remove the first line break if possible.
