    Hello,

    I am trying to copy from word to boards but I get a mess of [*FONT errors.

    Can you help me solve this issue? I presume if I use a font in word that boards uses I will have no issue? If so what font are you using?

    Thanks

    If you're using Word 2007, that composes documents by default in Calibri, which is not a supported web font.

    Use Arial or Tahoma and you should be fine.

    Ideally, don't use word at all. Use notepad or another plaintext editor and all your formatting trouble will seem so far away. :)
