    Do you get errors?

    How do you prevent them?

    save as a file format other than word. or paste into html and reformat or use a conversion tool Word puts a lot of junk code into everything if you just cut and paste.

    Copying from Word sucks ! Better to paste onto notepad first to strip out all the crap and make your modifications within the WP post editor (bolds, colors, tagss and such). That's the safest way, and inevitably the least time consuming.

    This is the right way! Copying formated text and placing it into WYSIYG editor starts big mess.
