Not all of the content-shoveling we do around here is as meticulous as yours. :-) Actually, the most problematic thing we lose to #3 is hyperlinks; the most difficult to reconstruct in a web CMS environment is commonly tables. This is extremely helpful. I may give it a try on an upcoming project. Thanks, Cecily.

I generally prefer reformatting any content that is delivered as a Word doc, and because it doesn't retain that formatting, it makes my job a great deal easier.

In my experience pasting from Word into web-based CMSes can create problems in various ways depending on expectations: (1) it can introduce junk HTML; (2) it can preserve formatting information you don't want, particularly fonts, line breaks and hyphenation; or (3) it can fail to preserve formatting information you do want such as bold, italics, bulleted lists and tables. I briefly experimented with JumpStart and it looks like it's immune to problems (1) and (2) because it takes nothing from Word except plain text and paragraph breaks; however that makes it subject to problem (3). Correct? I see that I echoed misterjt in my oohing at JumpChart. :-)
