Quickly remove HTML Controls from document in Word

Author Kelly Last modified

When pasting content from a webpage into Word, HTML controls such as input boxes, checkboxes, option buttons, command buttons, and scroll bars may also be included. While some can be manually deleted using the Delete key, removing them one by one can be time-consuming. Kutools for Word's Remove All HTML Controls in Selected Range utility is designed to quickly remove all HTML controls from a selected part or the entire document, making the process much easier.
