Paragraph break vs Line break in OSX

If you're having troubles with text jumbled together when copy pasting documents the issue is most likely caused by incorrect use of line breaks and paragraph breaks. This is usually a problem with MS Word documents.

To fix such documents, open them in Pages before copying. Select Edit/ Find/ Find.../ Advanced. From the drop down options select Line break for Find and Paragraph break for Replace. Once you complete the replace operation you copy the text and it will work correctly.
