How do i copy paste text from word and retain formatting?

[Cean_Fernando]

I created an article in word with specific formatting e.g. number, indented bullet, number, indented bullet

when pasting the text into the fields, the formatting is not carried over.

Hi @Cean_Fernando ,

Explore our plugin - Format Painter for Confluence (Server) - which already listed at Atlassian Marketplace. Cloud version coming soon. The Format Painter add-on allows to copy and paste formatting from one section of the document to another, such as font style, color, text size, etc. With the Format Painter app copy-paste of formatting really easy. Give it a try!

Hi @Cean_Fernando ,

you can keep some/most of the formatting by importing the word document.  Click on the three dots in the top right, and choose "Import Word Document".

Click on the three dots in the top right

In the top right of what? I see 3 dots in the top right of the Attachments pane, but there is no "Import Word Document" option. Do you have some special plugin?

It seems the menus etc changed since I posted the answer.  Here's the current way: https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/import-content-into-confluence-cloud/

okay, nevermind. I thought I was in a community discussing Jira. The solutions mentioned seem like they apply to Confluence. I'll have to Google fresh to find the solution to this problem for Jira issues.
