--- Comment #10 from Heiko Tietze <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Luke Kendall from comment #9) > Pasting without formatting means you lose all formatting and style > information... That seems to imply that copy and paste, including > formatting, is not a recommended action with Writer.

Obviously copy/paste with formatting is a typical source of layout issues. If the source of rich text is your browser, how should the text processor merge the formats, for example? Could imagine something like Calc's paste special with attribute classes like font (name, weight, size), font effects (upper/lower case, color, spacing), paragraph layout (margin, spacing, indentation), alignment, lists, etc. (details up for discussion). But that wouldn't solve the problem with font family. Point is that we don't allow setting this attribute manually but rather decide per chosen font name what to use. I see no elegant way to solve your problem (except to paste unformatted). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
