This option gives the same result of using Ctrl + V as it pastes the entire format of the selected text.

This option only paste the text that has been copied, but change the format so that it matches the text we are pasting.

4. Copy format and apply it to other text in Word 2019
It is normal that the format of some text is necessary to apply it to other text, instead of doing the step-by-step format (change text, apply effects, etc.), we can simply copy the existing format and apply it directly to the new text.

To do this, we select the text with the format to be copied, we will go to the Start menu, Clipboard group and there we click on the “Copy format†button. After this, the pointer will take the form of a brush and simply select the text to be edited and this format will automatically be applied there.
5. Copy changes made from one document to another in Word 2019
Step 1
In the event that we make use of the changes made to a file and it is necessary to move part of a document to a new document, we can prevent the loss of these changes since the Change Control function must be deactivated before copying the text . In this case we must deactivate the feature first by clicking on the "Change Control" button and then proceed to paste the text.
6. Paste from the Office 2019 clipboard
The Windows clipboard is one of the practical ways to host data to paste, but it has its limitation in that it only allows us to save one text at a time. Now, the Office clipboard can store up to 24 different items which is a better guarantee of availability.
For use, just copy all the desired items and then we go to the Start menu and click on the “Clipboard†section and the items that have been copied will be displayed. Just click on the item to paste in the document..
We can see how Word 2019 gives us useful options for copying, cutting and pasting objects as needed.
