The easy way to paste just plain text into a Word document is to use the Paste command on the Ribbon, or the Paste command in the right-click menu, and select Keep Text Only under “Paste Options.” While this is easy to remember and delivers the desired result, it can become annoying if you frequently paste text from other sources. A solution is to simply change the default paste settings in Word. Head to File Options Advanced Cut, Copy, and Paste. Here, you’ll see different default settings depending on the source text; you can set individual default actions for pasting within the same document, pasting between different Word documents, pasting when both the source and destination have conflicting style information, and pasting from other programs. For our needs, we most often want to keep text only when pasting from different documents and other programs, such as our Web browser, so we’ll set the corresponding options to “Keep Text Only.” With these new default settings, we can use the much more convenient CTRL+V shortcut to paste just the text instead of having to use the mouse or a more complicated keyboard shortcut.

However, in the event that we do want to keep the source formatting, we can still use the Paste Options menu to choose Keep Source Formatting. This is an acceptable tradeoff as, in our case at least, we want to paste plain text far more often than we want to keep source formatting. If you ever need to change your defaults, simply return to the Word Options window using the instructions above and set new default preferences.
