This works with the Safari, Chrome, and Firefox address bars (at least).

For a quick-and-dirty way of clearing the styles from copied text, you can paste copied text with styles into a web browser's address bar and then copy/cut out of the address bar (although this trick should work with any field that only accepts plain text only).

(I could not get ⌘ V to work properly with Fl圜ut, however, but other clipboard manager apps may do better-you could try Alfred, Quicksilver, ClipMenu, or others, though I don't know that all paste unstyled text only as with Fl圜ut.)

As long as those keystrokes aren't already in use for another app, the result will be that your new two-key combination will paste unstyled text system-wide. If you adopt this solution, it sounds like you might be interested in turning off the "Sticky bezel" (in Fl圜ut Preferences > General) and setting your hotkey to something like ⌥ V (that's option+V) or Ctrl V (in Fl圜ut Preferences > Hotkeys). For example, I use the free, simple, open-source app Fl圜ut, which as far as I can tell always pastes unstyled text.

Install a program that offers clipboard management (of which there are many).Thus, for a more all-inclusive solution, here are two methods, the first fast and graceful and the other quick and dirty.

Although you could change those keystrokes with the help of System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts, that won't help you in Illustrator. (In Apple apps, ⇧ ⌥ ⌘ V will conveniently mimic ⌘ V if the text is unstyled.)Īs far as I can tell, of Adobe CS 6, only InDesign has a "Paste without Formatting" option ( ⇧ ⌘ V it uses ⇧ ⌥ ⌘ V for "Paste in Place").

So that's an obstacle to relying on ⇧ ⌥ ⌘ V to always paste unstyled text. One annoyance of Word's approach is that if the text you've copied is not itself styled, the ⇧ ⌥ ⌘ V combination does nothing. As pointed out, ⇧ ⌥ ⌘ V is a useful key combination that will "Paste and Match Style" in a number of apps, such as Safari, TextEdit, Mail, Messages, Notes, and even Microsoft Word (well, it does a "Paste and Match Formatting" in Word, but the result is identical as far as I can tell).
