Word processing woes

[Davedrave]

I’m currently trying to write a document, using WPS Office, which I find pretty straightforward usually. I think it works much like Word. I wrote some text on my iPad and emailed it to myself, then copied from the email to my document on my laptop. I find a pastel grey-green page colour easier on my eyes than white, and have a template I have used successfully when writing documents from scratch on my laptop.

Now, pasting the text copied from my email, I’m getting the text on a glaring white background, framed by the page colour outside the text area. I don’t relish the prospect of having to type the text manually into the new document. Is there a workaround?

Have you tried pasting into notepad first, then copy and paste it into your document.

Notepad takes out the (unseen) formatting that you sent  to yourself.

Thanks, I’ll try that.
