Copying Text

You can move text in your document by copying it. Copying moves the selected text to a new location, but also leaves a "copy" of the text in its original position.
  1. Select the text you want to copy.
  2. Click on the Copy icon in the Standard toolbar.
  3. The text will still remain visible on your screen (you’re copying, remember?).
  4. Move the cursor to the desired new location, clicking there once.
  5. Click on the Paste button in the Standard toolbar.
  6. Your text will have been copied to the new location.

Note: The keyboard shortcut for the copy command is CTRL C. The keyboard shortcut for the paste command is CTRL V.
