Pasting from the Clipboard

The clipboard offers another way to insert graphics. Depending on the source and the operating system, figures may be in different formats. You can obtain an overview by choosing Edit → Paste Special from the menu bar or by clicking on the Paste icon’s drop-down menu on the main toolbar. The choices on the list vary with the type of graphic on the clipboard.
