LMS-2384 Ability to Paste Tables from Word

Summary Description

When copying Tables from Word, Lawmaker also needs to ‘paste’ the Table format into the document.

Background

Both UK and Scottish Government use Private Law firms and others to draft SIs and these are generally done in Word. SI/SSIs frequently have Tables, some large, in their Schedules. Drafters need to be able copy Tables into Lawmaker, while retaining the formatting. Currently, if you paste (using Ctrl V) a table only the text in the table is pasted in, and none of Table format is used.
