Last post I talked about Strip Mail which is useful for re format the mail when it is messed up while doing a reply or forward and Now lets just copy the text in plain text which is similar to the result when you paste it in notepad.

its common for us to gather information from Internet and then create a content which has all information at one place. This involves lot of copy and which brings us formatting problems. Be it Google Docs or Microsoft Office you need to fix it.

Keeping this in mind Copy Text Firefox extension is a good option if you are a Firefox lover. This add on integrates with your contextual menu ( right click ) when you select a text for copy giving you an extra option to copy text without any format.  A word to note here is TEXT so if you are using images etc you will need to use the applications options to paste clean text.

You can download  this addon from here https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/134

If you dont use Firefox but use Windows, you should give PureText a try. I wrote in detail on how to use it ( How to paste formatted text to any application without formatting ) and it does the same job of pasting the content in plain text.

The advantage you get here is the copy is made with formatting but pasting is different. So if you want to paste with formatting use the normal paste feature else use WIN + V.
