Hi @pawpawsaregreat, 

Welcome to the Community and thank you for sharing your question with us! 

Unfortunately, whenever content is brought over from a source other than Klaviyo, there is certain styling that is brought over as well. When pasting in text, our editor should allow you to Keep Text and Styles as shown below, however, the reason why Klaviyo offers and encourages the removal of formatting is because this can cause rendering issues in some major inboxes majority of the time so we want to ensure you are set up for success! 

I am more than happy to put in a feature request for you at this time, however the workaround as of now to save time in your situation would be to build the email in the editor itself, and then format the bullets aesthetically the way you want so you aren’t reduplicating as much effort!

Thank you for participating in the Community!

Thank you for the reply, Taylor! 

What does one need to do to bring up that ‘Paste and Keep Styles’ prompt? I’ve never seen it.

FWIW The reason we don’t draft our emails straight in Klaviyo is because we have multiple collaborators and reviewers, and Google Docs allows us a number of functionalities Klaviyo doesn’t have (but I don’t think Klaviyo should try and replace Google Docs!). 

Thanks!

Hey @pawpawsaregreat,

I believe that prompt was taken from our classic editor. But, to paste without bringing over styles or latent formatting, I typically just use Shift + Option + Command + V if your on Mac or Ctrl + Shift + V on a PC.  

At this point, I just make it habit of pasting almost all content without formatting.
