I cannot keep indenting when I paste from Word

oxband
When I paste from Microsoft Word for Mac 2008 into the notes section for an entry, I lose the indenting I've done. Since I write outlines of texts and want to save them in my notes on the text, it's kind of important I can keep the indenting. Any idea how to do this?

    not easily - might be possible to find a quick way to go through html though (maybe if you save a document as .html in Word it allows you to right-click and copy the html code?)

    But why not just attach Word files to the respective items instead? (or pdf files if you want them to be indexed).

    I'll leave this open since it was actually a different issue from the original thread, but please don't double-post. I already responded to you on this question.

    I went to the TinyMCE website but didn't find anything. did i miss something? is there a way to keep indentation?

    This is what I wrote to you on the other thread:
    If something works in the TinyMCE examples on that site, we should be able to get it to work in Zotero. Otherwise, it won't.

    I think it's pretty clear by now that there isn't - as Dan said - if it's not working in the TinyMCE examples it's not going to work in Zotero.
    Both the suggestion and the question in my post above still stand, though.
