Re: Copy and paste
Depending on the browser, when you copy/paste from Word, a *ton* of extra styles and garbage can get pasted from the clipboard. This can create a royal mess, as described more here:
http://www.websighthangouts.com/how-to-paste-from-microsoft-word/

There are online tools to address this like https://word2cleanhtml.com/

We used to have a button that would let you do a "paste from word" (and in fact, we still have a regular "paste" button)

However, in recent years (mostly due to security concerns) browsers like Chrome and FF won't allow you direct access (by default, anyway) to the clipboard anymore. So pasting into notepad first or using one of the cleaners above is the best option.
