How to remove style when paste in mail
When you paste content from a website into an email, it often brings along unwanted styles, such as formatting, images, and links. Here are a few ways to remove or strip these styles when pasting into an email:
Method 1: Use the "Paste as Plain Text" option
- Right-click on the content you want to paste and select "Copy" (or press Ctrl+C).
- Open your email client and place your cursor where you want to paste the content.
- Right-click on the cursor and select "Paste as Plain Text" (or press Ctrl+Shift+V).
- The content will be pasted without any styles.
Method 2: Use the "Paste Special" option
- Right-click on the content you want to paste and select "Copy" (or press Ctrl+C).
- Open your email client and place your cursor where you want to paste the content.
- Right-click on the cursor and select "Paste Special" (or press Ctrl+Shift+V).
- In the "Paste Special" dialog box, select "Unformatted Text" or "Plain Text" and click "OK".
- The content will be pasted without any styles.
Method 3: Use a third-party add-on or extension
There are several browser extensions and add-ons available that can help remove styles when pasting into an email. Some popular options include:
- "Paste as Plain Text" (Chrome, Firefox)
- "Remove Formatting" (Chrome)
- "Strip HTML" (Firefox)
Method 4: Use a keyboard shortcut
Some email clients, such as Gmail, have a built-in keyboard shortcut to remove styles when pasting. For example:
- In Gmail, press Ctrl+Shift+V (Windows) or Command+Shift+V (Mac) to paste as plain text.
Method 5: Use a text editor or word processor
If you're using a text editor or word processor to compose your email, you can paste the content and then use the "Format" or "Paragraph" menu to remove any unwanted styles.
Remember that these methods may not work perfectly, and some styles may still be preserved. However, they should help you remove most of the unwanted formatting when pasting content into an email.
