font problem, EN+ PIM for Mac

Hi there,

I use EN's PIM with Word 5.1 on the Mac. In Word, I have set my default
font to Times, not the (default) New York.
Quite often, however, I open one of my references in the PIM, copy some
text from the abstract field, switch back to a Word window and paste it there.

The text in the abstract field is set to "plain font", but once it gets
pasted into the Word document, it is in New York, even though there is nothing
before or after the insertion point formatted in New York. This is a pain!

When the PIM formats the citations and bibliography, however, the proper font
(i.e. my Word new default font, Times) is used.

Is there a solution to this?

Thanks in advance,

Denis Chabot

Avi answered this one last summer. The problem lies in differences between
the EndNote and Word clipboards. Will be fixed in the next release.
Meanwhile, it's fairly easy to "Select All" a file and then apply your
default font, even after a single pasting.
