My content workflow involves staging and formatting text in a word processing tool, like Word or Docs -- then copying the formatted text into a rich text field.
Unfortunately sometimes pasting certain elements go haywire, forcing me to spend time RE-formatting my text in Webflow.
Wish Webflow handled my copy-pasting workflow smoother.

We want to hear -- what's breaking for everyone? Please also share which tool you are copying from, and how important this is to your workflow.

This is really important as Microsoft word is used by many of my clients for source of the main content of regular post updates.
I've found the workaround of opening the word document in google docs and copying and pasting from there instead of the microsoft word client works OK but is far from ideal.
Please give some attention to this webflow.

Odd problem still have no solustion since ever in webflow. It's not a problem with Microsoft Word or Google Docs only, the list is really long.
I think many of webflow useres are intersted in desgin rather than text editing.

Copied texts are missing spaces in my case too. The only way around it is to paste it as simple text, and reformat ti from scratch. What a headache...

Why in the world is this still not fixed?? We're coming up on the THREE YEAR anniversary for the original issue wishlist: https://wishlist.webflow.com/ideas/WEBFLOW-I-489
This is incredibly bad.

When copying from Word into a rich text box (Designer or Editor), I lose spaces so wordsappeaer togetherlike this. As a workaround I found that if I copy the text into Notes (on mac) first, and then copy into the Webflow, I don't have that issue. Pretty silly that that's now part of my workflow!
