When you copy to clipboard GNML tags from TED, FRED or Styles Editor in EdAdmin4, you can't paste them in the text file, or a Word document as the tags are filtered out and not pasted.
In the same way, if you copy text string containing tags (written as >style1<>abcd< etc) from any non-GN4 application, it is pasted as text in TED, FRED, or EdAdmin4.
Here are two tricks which can save you lot of retyping:
TO CONVERT GNML TAGS TO A TEXT YOU CAN MAIL OR DOCUMENT
To convert GNML tags to a text that can be pasted in a mail, select all tags in your GN4 text in Ted4 or Fred4, open the script editor, and then run this script:
Text.InsText (Text.GetTxt)
This converts the tags in your GN4 text into a normal text. Select it, copy to the clipboard, and then paste it in a mail, or wherever you want.
TO COPY A TEXT CONTAINING TAGS AS GNML TAGS
1.In your source (mail, help topic or other document), select the text with tags and then press CTRL+C.
2.In Fred4 or Ted4 edit the GN4 text where you want to paste tags, and then on the Edit menu, point to Paste, and then click Convert to Tags.
