Comment on IT tips #2: Get rid of text-wrap when copying and pasting into Word by jonathan

Thanks for the appreciative comment.

It makes sense to add a space, so I’m wondering why I (deliberately – I remember) left that step out. I think I must have had a case where the deletion of a paragraph mark resulted in a space anyway, but that doesn’t sound right.

I really appreciated this article, as it taught me something I’ve been wondering about for a while. I used this technique to fix the hard wrapping that occurs when you copy a pdf text into word.

A tiny change to the above recipe that is needed to improve this case, is to add a space in the “Replace with” field. That prevents the joining of words that will occur otherwise.

Thanks for a great article! Much appreciated!

Ugh. Whatever happened to the rule that good URL’s never die? However, I’ve found the new one, and corrected it in the post, and here it is again http://link.springer.com/journal/11097/11/1/page/1
