How to Copy & Paste Word in Blogger
A large portion of bloggers choose to draft blog posts with word-processing software before copying and pasting the text into the content management system of Blogger. The problem with creating Blogger text in Microsoft Word is that the hidden code used by Word to format and display text can lead to layout problems, text size issues and font style errors in the published blog post. To copy text from Word without formatting errors, you'll need to save the document in plain text format before pasting the text into Blogger.
