CKEditor 5 copy “Font Definitions” from word document

[paulocesarr]

When I copy some text from my word document (.docx) some "Font Definitions" are copied. For example:

Word document:

✔️ Expected result

❌ Actual result

What is the actual result of the above steps?

📃 Other details

• Browser: Chrome
• OS: Windows 10
  We have the same issue in the demo documentation (https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor5/latest/features/pasting/paste-from-word.html
  Example file: simple.docx
  With CKEditor 4, works fine.

Hi, thanks for the report! Indeed, I can confirm this happens when I use your sample file. However I'm not able to reproduce it in any way when trying with some other Word files.
Could you please share more details on this ( MS Word version, maybe some specific custom styles you used ) ? Or maybe is there some other minimal content in Word that we could use to reproduce this?

It seems to be caused by this pseudo-table with numbers, below "Min Leakage Test...". Could you please provide step-by-step description on how you created this content?

Hi,
You don't need to copy the table. Some times happens, other times not. For example, look to the screen shot above, if I copy only the second (2) point of the "Alternations", the problem will happen. If you copy the first (1) point of the "Alternations", doesn't happen.
In Ckeditor 4 works fine (I don't know if this info can help you). Thanks a lot!
