To make the pasted text take on the formatting of the text surrounding where it is

pasted, you can:

• Edit > Paste Special, or

• Click the triangle to the right of the Paste icon, or

• Click the Paste icon without releasing the left mouse button.

Then select Unformatted text from the resulting menu.

Figure 64: Paste Special menu

The range of choices on the Paste Special menu varies depending on the origin and

formatting of the text (or other object) to be pasted. See Figure 64 for an example

with text on the clipboard.

This example includes the formatting option DDE link. DDE is an acronym for

Dynamic Data Exchange, a mechanism whereby selected data in document A can be

pasted into document B as a linked, ‘live’ copy of the original. It would be used, for

example, in a report written in Writer containing time-varying data, such as sales

results sourced from a Calc spreadsheet. The DDE link ensures that, as the source

spreadsheet is updated so is the report, thus reducing the scope for error and

reducing the work involved in keeping the Writer document up to date.

Finding and replacing text

Writer has two ways to find text within a document: the Find toolbar for fast

searching and the Find & Replace dialog box. In the dialog box, you can:

• Find and replace words and phrases

• Use wildcards and regular expressions to fine-tune a search

• Find and replace specific formatting

• Find and replace paragraph styles

If the Find toolbar is not visible, you can display it using View > Toolbars > Find.

To display the Find & Replace dialog box, use the keyboard shortcut Control+F or

choose Edit > Find & Replace from the menu bar.
