Retaining Font Format when pasting data from web

Norm Miller
in Layouts

Featured Replies

When I copy and paste information from a web site into a field, the font format from the web site is pasted with the data. This is not what I want. I want the pasted data to take on the font characteristics I have defined for the field under the layout. I tried Synchronize Field Font under Field Behaviors, but that had no effect. I also searched the manual and online help but was unable to find a solution. Thank you in advance. I imagine this is easy and perhaps common answer.

Here's two possibilities:

1. Option-paste the text (Option-Command-v.)

2. Add this auto-entered calc (with the option to replace existing,) for the fields you're pasting into:

Evaluate ( Quote ( Field ) )
