At the moment copy and paste keeps the formatting, but only when it's
displayed in the edit box. If you choose 'preview card', you'll see that
what has been pasted was in fact interpreted as plain text, and the card
is formatted as you've set in 'card appearance'
In a future version, I will strip the formatting from pasting.
Hope this helps,
Peter

Can anyone help me? How do I get pasted text from MS-Word to be

I did not see this in the forum discussions or in the documentation.
I use Microsoft Word 2007 to create the text needed for my cards.
I then copy the text from MS-Word and paste it into Mnemosyne to create
the actual cards. I do this because I use symbols {эă зĔ øə œ єõ} to
help remember the French pronunciation.
One of the nice things about Mnemosyne 1.x was that I did not have to
worry about matching the font. I could create my text in Times Roman 11
and then drop it Mnemosyne. Mnemosyne would make the necessary
adjustments and it would magically appear as Arial 12.
With Mnemosyne 2.0.1, I now need to match the font in MS-Word with the
font in Mnemosyne. Okay, I can live within using 16-point Microsoft San
Serif font when creating the text.
However, what can I do about the weird spacing that Mnemosyne is putting
between the lines? I do not see an option when I go to "Card
Appearance" under "Configure Mnemosyne".
I will give you a real example. Within MS-Word, the line spacing for
the following text is set to 1. Spacing before a paragraph is 0 pt.
Spacing after a paragrah is 0 pt.
This is how it looks in MS-Word:
(a) food
Note: foodstuffs, processed
On range certains … dans le réfrigérateur.
SYN : les provisions, la nourriture (food in general or nourishment),
les plat (dishes)
un aliment
{a/li/mă}
Note: countable in French
Note: you need aliments to make nourriture or cuisine.
This is how the same text looks after I copy-and-paste into Mnemosyne:
(a) food
Note: foodstuffs, processed
On range certains … dans le réfrigérateur.
SYN : les provisions, la nourriture (food in general or nourishment),
les plat (dishes)
un aliment
{a/li/mă}
Note: countable in French
Note: you need aliments to make nourriture or cuisine.
How do I get my text to be single-spaced in Mnemosyne?
THANKS
