To 'paste' means to make an exact copy of previously 'copied' or 'cut' text, pictures, or any other form of data. Practically speaking, 'pasting' copied text into a work processor (such as Microsoft Word) will create an exact copy right where your cursor is at the time of pasting.

∙ 7y agoWhen you copy or cut a line of text on a computer it saves it temporarily in something known as the "clipboard". You can later "paste" or drop the text you copied from another site off the clipboard and onto whatever you are viewing.

∙ 11y agoThe paste function places text stored on the clip-board into the document, at the place where the cursor is. The three 'linked' functions are copy, cut & paste - they are used to manipulate blocks of text. Follow the relevant instructions below...
To move a piece of text from one part of a document to another (removing the text from its original place and putting it elsewhere in the document) -
1 - Highlight the text you want, by positioning the cursor at the start of the text, then hold the left mouse button and drag the cursor over all the text you want.
2 - Right-click on the highlighted text and select copy.
3 - Right-click (again) and select cut.
4 - Move the cursor where you want the text moving to, right-click and select paste.
This will move the text from its original position to the new place.
To copy text from one part of a document to another (leaving the original text in place) Follow the same steps - but omit step 3.
