I select this, and we can see it put that formatting in there as well. When I paste that text in there, remember not only did a copy of the text, but it also copied the formatting. Now watch what happens when I select this. But again, my favorite way of doing this is Command V. So I go up under Edit in the menu bar, and then we go over to Paste. So now I just click in here, and now what I need to do is I just need to paste it. I want to paste it in this paragraph here. Anything that is bold is going to be copied. But in addition to that, it also copied the formatting. So now, let’s select this or use Command C, and it just copied that text. If there’s one keyboard shortcut, or I should say two keyboard shortcuts that I recommend everybody learn, it’s Command C for Copy and Command V, as in Victor, for Paste. One way of copying it is going up to Edit in the menu bar and then going to Copy. I just triple-click in here it selects the entire paragraph. We’re going to the second paragraph here. In order to copy and paste, all we have to do is just select what we want to copy. here, and now I can get some history here. So I go down to Safari here, and we’re going to go over to Wikipedia. Let’s go and move this over to the left here, make this a little bit smaller, and put it over here to the left. It opens up, and now I’m looking at my newsletter. So I go down to Pages here, and then I go to New Document, and what we’re going to do is select the Classic Newsletter. Now, what I’m doing is I’m creating a newsletter, and I want to have a little bit of history of Apple in that newsletter. So even though I’m showing you in Pages, it does work across different apps. This will work in Pages, Numbers, Microsoft Word, Excel, or even Notes, but it’s easiest to show you how this all works when we’re using Pages.
Now, before we get started, I’m going to demonstrate this in Pages, but this is a macOS-wide feature. That’s what we’re going to look at in this video. Well, maybe you want to have that format and match your existing document. By default, when you use copy and paste, not only does the Mac copy all of the text that you are copying, but it also copies the formatting of that text, and it will paste that formatting into your document. In this video, I will show you how you can paste and match style using copy and paste on the Mac.
