Pasting from Word isn't really working for us. We have so much reformatting to do, it isn't really worth it. The biggest problems are that bullets are different sizes, and spacing is often off. Columns don't work at all, or tables. Also, I finally got the image uploading working, (fyi, while the program will work with virtual directories, you cannot save images to a virtual directory) and apparently the users wanted to be able to copy and paste images from Word also without having to upload them to the server. Any thoughts or suggestions? (other than typing directly into the FCKeditor text box and using it's formatting) Is there any way to make this work with FCKEditor? Or is there any other product out there that works better with Word?

Re: Pasting from Word not exact
The only way I see to do this is by editing the CleanWord() function in /editor/dialog/fck_paste.html, but thats going to be a real pain in the ass, especially since I'm not an expert in regular expressions.
Does anyone know if there has been more extensive work in customizing the paste from word rules? Ideally, fckeditor would only allow text to be pasted with formatting that I allow based on the buttons on the toolbar and styles in the style menu.
