Text formatting eliminated when pasting from Evernote

[MooreRushVai 0]

Hello All.

 

I find that Evernote is a fabulous place to take notes and even create outlines.

 

But when I cut and paste into what will be the finished document, all of the formatting that I created in Evernote is gone.

 

It makes it almost useless for things that don't reside exclusively in Evernote.

 

What say you all?

 

Thanks

Depends on what you paste it into: if I paste marked-up text into a text editor, it had better strip the markup.. Please be specific as to operating system you are using, and application that you are pasting into. I seem to be able to paste into MS Word and other rich-text environments without much trouble on Windows.

Ah.  I just realized what my problem might be.

 

I'm using Win7, Google Chrome with Evernote and pasting into an Open Office Document.

 

Perhaps Open Office is the problem?

 

Thanks

Hmm, dunno -- haven't tried it. Gmail accepts the formatting, as far as I know. When Evernote puts text onto the clipboard, it generally does so in text format (OEM and Unicode), HTML, and Evernote's internal ENML format (HTML-like). The target application can choose whichever they prefer.

Cool.

Duly noted.

I'll try a different app.

 

Thank you Sir.
