Now that is smart! I like that approach. Notepad is so simple that all it would leave would be the text. Definitely a keeper. Thanks.

I haven't used Edge yet but when I copy material from a website that I want to keep as a Word doc I paste it into Notepad first and that strips away a lot of the web features and tools and then I copy and paste from Notepad into a Word doc.

I was playing with Edge this morning, browsing recipes. I found one I wanted to copy but it's not yet possible to do this either in JAWS or Narrator. Rather than search for the recipe using IE or Chrome, I opted for a work-around. I unloaded JAWS and pressed control a, for select all, then pressed control c. I then opened Word and pressed control v. I then loaded JAWS and there was the recipe, along with the rest of the web page. Smile. I just told JAWS to find one of the words in the recipe title, and then deleted everything above and below the recipe. It was cumbersome, but it worked. The process was even easier when I tried the same thing using the print button. I tabbed through until I got to cancel and there was the recipe, stripped of everything else. Granted, it's far easier at this point to use IE or Chrome, but if you get annoyed or frustrated at not being able to do something technologically that's available to others, there is sometimes a work-around. Perhaps Microsoft will resolve this for us soon. Smile. Rebecca A mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work if it isn't open.
