I have two issues with copying formatted text from the preview:
-
Plain *italics* plain
is rendered as
<p>Plain <em>italics</em> plain</p>
There should be no nbsp’s there – they are not there in the source, and it messes up the formatting. -
This one may be a problem with Libreoffice and not of obsidian, but just in case it has to do with the way the output from obsidian looks:
If I copy from the preview some formatted text that spans a paragraph border, the formatting is not preserved when I paste it in a libreoffice document. Pasting just part of the text, without any <p>
tags, works as expected, but once a paragraph is crossed, only the nbsp’s are preserved.
If I paste in e.g. a html editing window in a web page, the formatting is preserved, which probably means that it is a problem with libreoffice, but it makes me wonder if there is anything in the output from obsidian that messes with poor ol’ libreoffice.
Environment
- Operating system: linux
- Obsidian version: 0.12.15
