To paste as plain text in Windows (i.e. without any formatting), you can use the following methods:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. **Through a text editor such as Notepad (Notepad):**<\/p>\n\n\n\n

   - First, copy the text as you normally would.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

   - Open Notepad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

   - Paste the text into Notepad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

   - Copy the text from Notepad again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

   - Paste anywhere you like; it will now be pasted as plain text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. **Use shortcut keys (depending on the application):**<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In some programmes, you can use specific keyboard shortcuts to paste text as plain text. A common keyboard shortcut is `Ctrl + Shift + V`. However, not all programmes support this, so it is good to test this first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. **Use specialised software:** <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are programmes and utilities available that give you more control over copying and pasting, including the ability to always paste in plain text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whichever method you choose, the important thing is to remove formatting from the original text before pasting it into a new location.<\/p>","protected":false},"template":"","docs-categorie":[59],"class_list":["post-33922","kennisbank","type-kennisbank","status-publish","hentry","docs-categorie-algemeen"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/impression.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kennisbank\/33922","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/impression.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kennisbank"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/impression.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/kennisbank"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/impression.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=33922"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"docs-categorie","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/impression.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/docs-categorie?post=33922"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
