Import Content from Word

Key Paste Features

Battle Tested

Textbox.io uses Tiny’s technology for filtering Word content. The technology has been developed for over a decade and supports all versions of Word on each operating system.
cloud_upload

Image Upload

Local images are detected in the document’s HTML and you are prompted with a special image upload mechanism. Other Word document items such as charts work too!

Lists

By default, Microsoft Word does not provide HTML with lists correctly identified. With Textbox.io, we recognize the list pattern and create valid HTML lists.

Compare Textbox.io’s Results

The following examples show that content pasted from the source document into a default ‘contenteditable‘ region and then the output provided by Textbox.io. Content pasted into Textbox.io is significantly cleaner and images are uploaded.

Without Textbox.io

The following HTML is produced by default when pasting content from Microsoft Word. It is extremely complicated, bloated and difficult to manage. Most basic online editors utilize the default browser capabilities and will provide something close to this. Textbox.io has the industry’s best solution for cleaning up this HTML. See the next two tabs for the result.

With Textbox.io

Selecting the Remove Formatting option in Textbox.io cleans up the HTML and keeps structural content elements such as headings, tables and lists. The following HTML is produced by Textbox.io when pasted from the source Word document.

Try Pasting from Word

Try out clean copy-and-pasting in Textbox.io yourself.

Industry-leading copy paste filtering with image import is built in. You will love copy paste that just works. Even pasting complex list and table content from Microsoft Word is seamless and creates predictable, standards-compliant HTML.

What You See Is What You Get

Edit content inline on the page
