Copying Content Here From Google Docs

[cogdog]

In a previous post on I mentioned the idea of composing content in Google Docs

Much of the writing here will be conversational, but if you are composing something longer, like the materials for your presentation or poster, you may want to do your writing elsewhere, such as MS Word or Google Docs. If you copy your formatted content and paste it in this editor, all major formatting (e.g. headings, emphasis, hyperlinks, lists, quotes) will be preserved.

And as an added bonus for copying from Google Docs, any images in your text will be brought here too.

The OEG Connect text editor can re-create the format when pasted in of rich text formatted content, e.g. copied from a web page or, more interestingly, from a Google Doc.

This would work great for OE Global 2020 presenters putting together their resource to add o their presentation or creating the content for an asynchronous or poster presentation

Here is a silly test of composing in a Gdoc, selecting all, copy, then pasting here… Headings, lists, links, and even images come along nicely.

This is Fascinating

Yes it is, well a formatted, Google doc. Surprised? What if we composed here, then did a Select All, Copy, then paste into OEG Connect?

Amazing Subheadings Might Happen

And we might

• Have
• Lists
  • Even
  • With
  • Levels

As well as images! Especially, ones with attribution.
