Pasting text directly from word document into blackboard creates formatting problems, may make the content unreadable because of the hidden formatting code included when using the copy/paste feature from Word. We recommend that you use a notepad (PC) and Notepad) or TextEdit (Mac) as a solution to remove html code. Using Notepad or TextEdit removes the bad html code from text.
