When you paste citations and references into a Word document, the font
assigned to the copied text is Word's Normal style. If Word's default font
is set to the font usedin your Normal style, and the wrong font (New York
12) still creeps into your paper upon pasting, the problem is with Word's
Clipboard. EndNote does not assign a font to the citation, however the
Clipboard will assign Word's original default font, NEW YORK 12, if no other
text from your document has been copied prior to copying the citation. To
avoid this from happening, first select some text from your Word document
and "Copy" it to the Clipboard; this will set the correct font in the
Clipboard. Next, paste a reference from EndNote Plus into your document. It
should now appear in your document in the correct font.
