Hi Christian,

RadEditor strips only MS Word specific tags, classes and attributes in the pasted content. It does not strip the valid inline style attributes. If you would like you can strip the inline styles along with the Word tags and formatting on paste by setting the StripFormattingOptions property to "MSWord,Css", e.g.

<telerik:radeditor runat="server" ID="RadEditor1" StripFormattingOptions="MSWord,Css"></telerik:radeditor>

You can find more information about this property in the following help article: Cleaning Word Formatting.

Kind regards,

Thank you Rumen.

Adding: StripFormattingOptions="Css,Font,Span,MSWordRemoveAll" made a huge difference in IE.

However, in Firefox, I see the following in the source just above the beginning of the content. How can we preven this?

<style>

</style>

Hi Christian,

The Paste From Word button fires the MSWord setting which strips only the MS Word formatting, MS tags and MS attributes. The MSWord setting does not strip the valid inline HTML style attributes such as style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;".

To strip the inline styles when pasting content through the Paste From Word or Paste From Word Clean Font and Size buttons you should use the following code that will fire the FormatStripper command, e.g.

    
            <script type="text/javascript"> 
        
            function OnClientCommandExecuted(editor, args) 
        
            { 
        
               if (!args || !args.get_commandName) return; 
        
               //The command name 
        
               var commandName = args.get_commandName();    
        
               var value = args.get_value();            
        
               if(commandName=="PasteFromWord" || commandName == "PasteFromWordNoFontsNoSizes") 
        
               { 
        
                    editor.fire("FormatStripper", {value : "CSS"}); 
        
               } 
        
            } 
        
            </script> 
        
            <telerik:radeditor runat="server" ID="RadEditor1" 
        
                OnClientCommandExecuted="OnClientCommandExecuted"> 
        
            </telerik:radeditor>

As to the missing carriage returns problem: I was unable to reproduce it. For your convenience I have attached my test project. If you are able to reproduce the issue, please open a support ticket and send a sample video or screenshot of the problem and sample word document for test.

All the best,
