Is there a way to paste with formatting and retain single spacing? Is there a hidden configuration or something?
No. Confluence is not a WYSIWYG editor like Word. It is web based, so a mix of HTML and CSS. You would need to change the space CSS to change the line spacing.
When you copy and paste, some of the formatting is kept, much of it is stripped out when you save.
OK, other web based editors, web mail, web forms, and other wikis do not seem to have this particular behavior of inserting double spacing when pasting from other web based sources. It is peculiar to Confluence.
Maybe a different issue. That you have breaks between lines. Past into notepad first, then into Confluence to clean out the formatting.
There are no issues with copying and pasting from web sources to web mail, web forms, or other wikis. Pasting into confluence is the only place that creates the double spacing. Copying from Confluence to any of these web based editors does not cause double spacing and retains most of the formatting. The issue follows Confluence.
