Remove Text Formatting and Paste Unformatted Text

How many times have you copied something from a web site and found that you also copied the formatting that you really didn’t want?   Or you copied from one document to another and included unnecessary formatting.  It can be very frustrating at times, can’t it?  The standard method of copying (Control>C) and pasting (Control>V) brings along all the unwanted text formatting, including text with a different font size or colours, images, tables, borders or any other formatting that you don’t want or need.   

A simple utility called Plain Text allows you to follow the same copy>paste routine but you have options to paste unformatted text with a different keyboard shortcut key (Control>Windows). 

I have used Plain Text for quite a while now and really wouldn’t want to do without it – it saves so much time removing unwanted formatting.  Visit the Plain Text web site for more information on this must-have simple utility.  I highly recommend it.   If you find you need a bit more information on how to use this utility, click on the “Home” tab on their web site.  

Enjoy!
