Ephox: paste as plain text only possible?

Rhythmyx Technical Discussion

Hello

Has anyone had success in making the clean import option work:

wordImport styleOption=“clean”
htmlImport styleOption=“clean”

If so would you mind posting your elj_config.xml file?

Also, is it possible to lock down the ephox control so user can only insert plain text?

In looking further the ‘clean’ does not equate to ‘plain text’ so the setting is probably working as expected on our system:

Optional Attributes

styleOption

This attribute specifies the user prompting and behaviour of EditLive! for Java upon detecting an import from Microsoft Word. This attribute has three possible values; user_prompt, merge_embedded_styles, merge_inline_styles or clean.


      The user_prompt setting will result in EditLive! for Java prompting the user as to whether they wish to import Microsoft Word styles as inline or embedded styles or strip them from the imported text. The dialog used to prompt the user is the same as the Paste Special dialog.

      The clean setting will result in EditLive! for Java stripping the Microsoft Word Styles from the imported text and only structural HTML elements will be imported.

      The merge setting will result in the Microsoft Word styles being merged with the current style information within EditLive! for Java.
      Important

      The merge setting has been deprecated.

      The merge_embedded_styles setting will result in EditLive! for Java importing styles from Microsoft Word with the styles stored in the <head> of the document and class attributes will be applied where relevant.

      The merge_inline_styles setting will result in EditLive! for Java importing styles from Microsoft Word with style information applied inline inplace of class attributes.

Note

Styles imported from Microsoft Word will not overwrite styles which already exist within the document.
