Mac Forum / Applications / Word / December 2007use word documents in a content management system
I have a lot of problems using word documents in a CMS, the problem that i have is that when i copy text from a word file in my CMS it breaks up in a very small length. When i view the word document in webpage view everything looks fine but after copying in the CMS everything is changed. How can i solve this problem. Strange thing is when i work with the same document on a PC everything works fine, but i dont wanna work with a pc cause i have a wonderfull MAC :-)) I'm working with office for mac 2004 Sadly, even though we are on Macs here too, we cannot read your screen from here. So before we can answer your question, we need to know what you mean by "CMS", and which one you are using! Basically, it sounds as though you are opening the files in HTML and copying text from a browser. HTML is too simple to fully describe the content of a Word document, so you lose things such as paragraphs and styles. Most browsers cannot retrieve enough formatting to paste perfectly into Word documents. While there may be things you can do to improve your result, the real answer is "Open the original, in Word .doc format, if you want to edit it!" :-) Cheers On 24/12/07 2:12 PM, in article fac1798d-d85e-445b-92c0-b610d7f1349f@p69g2000hsa.googlegroups.com, > I have a lot of problems using word documents in a CMS, the problem > that i have is that when i copy text from a word file in my CMS it [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > MAC :-)) > I'm working with office for mac 2004  SignatureDon't wait for your answer, click here: http://www.word.mvps.org/ Please reply in the group.
