pasting text from FM to FM

When I have 2 instances of FM open and I copy text in one FM and paste the text in the second instance of FM, the formatting disappears even though the same pgfs are used in both places. Even tables lose their tableness. What is happening here and how can I fix it? TIA Leah Smaller Technical

RE: FM, paste special text option

Note that the maker.ini change does *not* do what you actually asked about. The change does not change the order of items in the list in the Paste Special dialog. What it does change is the default behavior of the *regular* paste command (Ctrl+V or EditPaste). If you change the maker.ini

RE: pasting text from FM to FM

The behavior you are seeing is because you are using two separate instances of FrameMaker, so that the copy/paste operation has to use the Windows clipboard. If you copy and paste between two different document windows in the same instance of FrameMaker, the copy/paste operation is completely

This is a side question that someone asked me today, and I didn't know the answer. Why is 'save as PDF' bad? 4th best: Use Save as PDF. Adobe *mostly* fixed this function as of FrameMaker 7.x, but you're still relying on a lot of separate factors to all be in agreement. This method does so
