How to Clear Formatting in a Document Section

If your PDF export looks unformatted or inconsistent, it might be due to hidden styling copied from another tool (like Word, Google Docs, or email). These pasted styles can override Plannerly’s clean formatting.

Contents

Here’s how to fix it:

  1. Open the section and highlight the affected text

    • Go to the section in your Plannerly document where the formatting looks off.

    • Select the text or paragraph that looks different (for example, wrong font, size, or spacing).

  2. Select the More Text tool and clear the formatting

    • In the toolbar, click the More Text button.

    • Select the Cell Formatting option.

    (See the numbers in the image below for reference)

Reapply your preferred styles

  • Once cleared, you can reapply headings, bold text, lists, or other styles using the toolbar.

Tip

If you pasted text from another source:

  • Try using Paste as plain text (Ctrl+Shift+V or Cmd+Shift+V) to avoid importing unwanted styles.

  • After clearing formatting, re-export your PDF to confirm the section now appears consistent.

Clearing formatting removes hidden inline styles that can cause layout or export issues. It is a quick way to ensure your document prints cleanly and matches your project style settings.
