What is the Paste from Word button?
When you are adding or editing a calendar event in Groups, the Paste from Word button automatically removes hidden characters when the source file for the copied text is a Microsoft Word document. The Paste from Word button is available on the event Description, Agenda and Minutes fields.
Why?
There are known issues with cutting and pasting text between pieces of
software. Most of the time you simply want to copy the text, but you
may inadvertenly also copy hidden formatting characters that cause
display problems in the software you are pasting the text into. Since
you cannot see the hidden characters when you copy the text, a common
way to remedy this is to first paste the text into a plain text editor,
manually remove the hidden characters, and then to paste it into the
second piece of software. This approach is effective but it is time
consuming. Paste from Word simplifies this.
