Numbers will not copy and paste from Microsoft Word 2016 to AOL Write
When I create a text in Microsoft Word 2016 that includes item numbers in front of listed items and copy/paste it to AOL Write, the text will copy, but the numbers will not.
For example, if I type:
- This is a test
- This is a test
“This is a test” will copy and paste, but the numbers 1 and 2 will not.
This is caused by the fact that the numbered and bullet lists are not composed as text symbols in Microsoft Word. To resolve this please follow the steps below to convert the numbered and bullet lists into text symbols:
1. Open Microsoft Word.
2. Go to File – Options – Advanced.
3. Scroll down to the “Cut, copy, and paste” section.
4. Turn ON “Keep bullets and numbers when pasting text with Keep Text Only option”.
