  How do I insert a word document or link to the media library in posting. Also when I copy and paste from a word document my formatted listings change. How do I stop that?

  Hi there!

  It’s not possible to embed a Word document to your WordPress.com site, however, you can add a link to that document so that your visitors will be able to download it. Here’s more information about that:

  As for copy-pasting from Word, our editor was not created with that in mind but if you want to create the content elsewhere and paste it to your site, you will want to try to copy the text without formatting. This article might help.
