Reformat text on copy and paste

[Michael_Lever]

Using Devonthink 3 Pro, I can capture text from whatever source (eg websites, etc). then use a keyboard shortcut of my own making via Word Service, to reformat - stripping out all links, line endings, headings, bold, etc etc.

What I’d like to do is copy and paste direct into a long text field in AT and have the field reformat it? Is that possible, and if so would I need to use a formula or script and if so what would the formula be and how would I go about it?

I usually just solve this by using the browser’s built-in ability to “paste without style” or “paste and match style”. On the Mac, the keyboard shortcut for this is usually command-option-V. You can see it underneath the “Edit” menu.
