Copy and Pasted Text Behaves Erratically
Firstly, I'm a long time user of Zoho apps. I always extol the virtues of Zoho to my students and colleagues.
But I have a serious problem in the writer app.
Problem:
When copying and pasting text from another source (ie: Google Docs, simple online forms, even Zoho Notebook text ), the pasted text behaves erratically upon further formatting in the Writer app.
Behavior:
When trying to block indent a text segment, entire text indents.
When trying to center a text segment, entire text centers.
When striking return key once, double spacing occurs.
This was not a problem before.
I'm having students build resumes in a simple online form and then when we try to copy and paste these simple text drafts into Writer, its a formatting disaster. Last year this was not a problem.
FYI: I've got about 100 students getting very frustrated. In comparison to Google docs, google docs doesn't behave this way.
Mac OS 10.5.8
Firefox 3.6.9
Safari 4.1.2
Thanks
