I'm trying to copy the message(s) for the Enemy Fan Forums weekly thing.

When I copy the message, it loses all the formatting and it's a PITA to redo all the individual formatting 'things' -

If I'm just being obtuse (hey - first WKRP reference for the month!) - how do you copy a message and retain the formatting -

Maybe I'm just missing something easy -

Any help appreciated.

Could you try to paste it to a Word product to check the formatting? It may be what they are using over there that is causing issues.

NOPE.

It makes it 'out' into word. But just pastes back in as plain white.

Publisher changes it to an image and mangles it.

Hmmm....Maybe use Acrobat and do an image instead?

Figured it out!

Toggle to BB mode with the "[]" button and copy the code!

Works like a charm.
