Hi I canot seem to copy my written article from my word document and put in a post . This is very frustrating as it seems to past as a picture and I cannot edit it or seem to delete it. I do not want to have to rewrite 2000 word articles. Please help. Also once I started a post it now shows as a draft and I cant delete it? How do I delete the draft
Please advise

Welcome to the forum and to Ghost!
Iām able to copy and paste out of Word (running Office 365 on Windows 10) and into the Ghost editing page without any issues. It gets at least 90% of the formatting right, typically.
So something is odd in your specific case. Could you please tell us what version of Word, what computer OS (Windows or Mac orā¦), and where youāre running Ghost? If you go to your admin panel and then scroll down to āWhatās newā, click the āSee more featuresā link. Grab the box that looks like this and paste it into your post:
One other question: If you hit reply to this post and try to paste in some text from a Word document, what happens? Iām wondering if you have your ādefault pasteā settings set to something unusual. If youāre on windows, try checking those settings as described here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/control-the-formatting-when-you-paste-text-20156a41-520e-48a6-8680-fb9ce15bf3d6 (Thereās an option to paste as a picture, and I wonder if youāve got it set.)
Thatāll help us help you!
