Once you’ve copied the target text with formatting, hit the Paste button on the MS Word ribbon.
You can paste text without formatting into MS Word using a special ‘Paste’ option on the ribbon. However, this shortcut doesn’t work in MS Word, which uses a native method to paste plain text into the editor. On a Mac, press Command+Option+Shift+V to ‘paste and match formatting’ in a document. This method works in all major browsers while writing in WordPress, say for instance, and in most applications. To do that, press Ctrl+Shift+V to remove formatting instead of Ctrl+V on Windows. Using a keyboard shortcut is, by far, the easiest way to paste plain text without formatting on your computer.
