Paste plain text

[bobgott]

Maybe I missed this somewhere, but is there an option to paste plain text?

@bobgott currently PasteBar app supports paste for plan text or images only.

@kurdin , If I copy text from a web page and paste somewhere else it pastes with web page characteristics. How do I force 'plain text'? Could not find in 'help'. Windows v, does the trick .. can't find comparable in pastebin.

@bobgott If you copy text directly from a web browser, it could includes the formatting (HTML styles).

If you want to strip out the HTML formatting and paste it as plain text using PasteBar, you can use the built-in format converter. Here is how to do it:

Copy the text from the webpage as usual.
Open PasteBar, select the item, and go to Special Copy > Format Converter > HTML > HTML to Text.

This will extract just the raw text from the copied HTML, allowing you to paste it anywhere completely unformatted.

Could you also share your specific step-by-step workflow? (e.g., are you looking for a global shortcut to "Paste as Plain Text" instantly?) That will help me guide you better!
