Yet another pasting problem -- text losing formatting
I am a graphic designer who recently upgraded to Windows 7. I had no problems until a couple days ago when I began to have difficulty copying and pasting in the programs I use most: Adobe CS products and MS Word.
Copied text loses its formatting, such as font, style and coloring when pasted. Blocks of text lose returns, most spaces, etc.
When pasting into Word, text takes on the style of a nearby font, unless it is a font like Wingdings2, which becomes a line of dots. In Illustrator, all pasted text becomes the program's default font.
Images and objects copy and paste fine, unless text is copied as the same time, in which case only unformatted text will paste and the object or image disappears.
Any help appreciated. It's driving me crazy and creating a lot of extra work.
Cheers
