Method 2: Using Native Option in MS Word. However, this shortcut doesn’t work in MS Word, which uses a native method to paste plain text into the editor. In the Format and account section of the dialog box, check or uncheck Compose messages in HTML by default. On a Mac, press Command+Option+Shift+V to ‘paste and match formatting’ in a document.

#Plain paste mac download
Word Service is available here under Freeware: DEVONtechnologies | Download If there are a lot of hyperlinks I want preserved, I often plain paste, select the text, select Default from the document’s Style menu bar item (with the paragraph symbol), then, if paragraphs are not preserved, select the text and apply DEVONtechnologies free Word Service’s “Word Service:Reformat” command from the Services Menu. When there’s no (or few) hyperlinks Paste and Match Style is my main tool for the job. Nice discussion - thanks for all the good ideas
