Deleting, Copying, and Pasting Text

If you want to copy or move a chunk of text from one part of the document to

another, the easiest way to do this is to copy it (or cut it) from its original location, and

then paste it in the new location. If you copy text, you will not delete it from its

original location; if you cut text, it will be deleted from its original location.

To copy (or cut) and paste text:

1

Select the text you want to copy or move.

2

Choose Edit > Cut or Copy.

3

Place the text cursor in the location where you want to move the text, then do one of

the following:

 Choose Edit > Paste to maintain the original formatting of the pasted text.

 Choose Edit > Paste and Match Style to change the formatting of the pasted text to

match the formatting of the text around it.

To completely delete selected text:

Choose Edit > Delete.
