a. Paste content as plain text and apply any formatting as needed directly in the EasyMTP Rich Text Editor. This will not retain any formatting or tables which will have to be redesigned in the editor;

b. Copy text from Word, paste to a Google Doc, copy from the Google Doc, then paste to EasyMTP editor. This will transform text to HTML, still preserving some of the formatting that may be reapplied in EasyMTP editor.

c. Convert the document to Google Doc format. If larger than 500KB, split the document in sections and upload/convert separately. Copy content from the Google Doc then paste to EasyMTP editor.

Please contact the CGMap team at cgmap-support[AT]cgiar.org for ad-hoc Google Doc conversion support ONLY if your MTP content has been developed in Word 2007.

Type: recommended procedure

Sometimes it happens that the Strip Formatting control, or just cutting and pasting content in Notepad would not remove unwanted formatting from text in the Rich Text Editor.

This happens when the fancy formatting carried over from MS Word remains in the HTML code. It can be so complex that the Strip Formatting control does not clean it completely.

In this set of screenshots, you will learn how to reveal the HTML code, clean it manually and paste clean text back in.

Type: known issue

This issue is already reported and unfortunately erratic. The years are in the list, but sometimes connectivity creates hiccups in connections and the list is not displayed properly.

We recommend that you just get out of the Output targets editing page to another section and then go back in.

Type: known bug, fixing in progress

This is a bug in the display only. The tags don't show in the report eventually. Splitting the text of an OT on three lines, for example, is formatting, as it requires the HTML editor to insert the <br> tag.

This set of screenshots explain how to strip all formatting. Anyway, should you need to break text into separate lines, you can easily ignore the displayed tags. They are not displayed in the report.
