Unfortunately, copy/paste can't do that.

The only way to keep formatting from Word is to use the beta drag & drop, but the beta only works for Static items and Book entries. See How To Upload Writing from Writing.Com 101 .

With copy/paste, you would need to manually add the WritingML font tags to the review. See Enhance Your Item With WritingML from Writing.Com 101 .

People who write reviews in Word either wait to do the writingml until after they've done the copy/paste to the site so they can use the WritingML Formatting Button Bar in the Review Tool to add the tags (see The Review Tool from Writing.Com 101 , Basic membership required), or they type the tags directly in Word, either by hand or by copy/pasting them from a template. The second method is safer for not losing your work.

At this point, you could use MS Word's Find function with the Format menu and the Reading Highlight option to highlight the strike-through and then the bold to make it easier to add (hand copy/paste) the writingml tags around the correct text.

Also note that if the review is really huge, it's possible it might not all fit in a review.






Hope that helps.
