Configure Paste Settings In Word 2002

When you paste text into a document, Word will automatically make formatting adjustments to the text. This is referred to as ‘Smart cut and paste’ and it is enabled by default in Word.

With this option enabled, you can configure individual cut and paste options. For example, you can prevent Word from adjusting the format of content pasted from PowerPoint into your word document.

To configure individual cut and paste options:

1. Within Word, click Options from the Tools menu.
2. Select the Edit tab.
3. Under Cut and paste options, click the Settings button.
4. Select the individuals paste options that you want to use.
5. Click OK.
6. Click OK to close the Options window.
