Pasting word document and retain font colors

  • tafseerquran77 · Member ·

    Hello,

    Can someone explain to me if and how it’s possible to paste text from word into wordpress and retain the same different font colors?

    I noticed some sites mentioned a “paste from word” button but I can’t find this one, maybe it’s been removed from the current wordress version?

    Any help would be highly appreciated, thanks.

    I can’t simply change the color in wordpress because it’s a long series of different colored fonts to emphasize the different people speaking in a conversation.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Pasting from a Word document to wordpress.com is a bad idea! Word produces very sloppy, heavy and incompatible html resulting in loosing formatting.
    Instead just type your text directly into the wordpress.com block editor and format it in there.

    Thank you starrtmees for your reply. The problem is I already have a 300 page word document that I will include as individual posts, and I have to retain the font color format. Is there a way to export from word to another program or format and then input into wordpress to retain the formatting? Thank you.

    No there isn’t. The only solution is to save that document as pdf and insert it as a link in your site, https://wordpress.com/support/embed-a-pdf-file/
