📝 When pasting formatted content into Word, adjusting formats and format painter is troublesome, how to paste plain text without formatting
In Word document editing, the most headache-provoking issue is formatting chaos. When copying content from web pages or other documents to Word, the original formatting will overwrite Word's style settings, resulting in inconsistent fonts, font sizes, line spacing, etc. Although Word has "Format Painter" and "Clear Formatting" functions, they are still cumbersome to operate, especially when dealing with large amounts of content.

- Step 1: 📋 Copy content from any source
- Step 2: 🧹 Paste into this tool, automatically clearing all formatting
- Step 3: 📄 Copy plain text and paste into Word, fully inheriting Word's style settings
Content pasted into Word in this way will automatically apply Word document's default styles without manual format adjustment. Particularly suitable for writing papers, reports, contracts and other formal documents that require uniform formatting. Combined with Word's style functions, you can quickly create standardized and aesthetically unified documents.
