Petit_Scarabe Posted August 12, 2009 at 04:13 PM Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 at 04:13 PM Hi all, Being a "visual" kind of a learner, and having difficulties with learning and remembering tones, I was very happy some times ago to find out about popupchinese.com's plugin that allows to color chinese characters according to tones on web pages. Now the problem is that there seems to be no way to do a copy/paste operation to have a chinese text with colored characters that I could use in Word for instance. If anybody knows a workaround, or maybe another plugin or application that could do that, please let me know. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeyah Posted August 13, 2009 at 07:44 PM Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 at 07:44 PM Hi Petit Scarabe, I wonder what's the problem I did the copy & paste thing a couple of minutes ago, and it works just fine. You don't need any plugins, but maybe you need to open Word first , then select/copy/paste. Anyway, here's a screenshot of a Popchinese page in Word.doc that I made, with all the coloured hanzi neatly displayed: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petit_Scarabe Posted August 13, 2009 at 08:31 PM Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 at 08:31 PM Hi, Leeyah, here's an example of what's not working for me : 1. I go to the BBC's chinese website and select an article. 2. I use the plugin to have the colored characters 3. I select all the colored characters, copy and then paste into word. 4. What i get is non colored characters aligned vertically (see pictures) Does it work better for you ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
