Click where you want to paste the text.
To have the copied text retain its style formatting, choose Edit > Paste.

Edit > “Paste and Match Style.”

If you accidentally delete text, choose Edit > Undo to restore it.
When you use the Copy or Cut command, the selected text is placed in a holding area
called the Clipboard, where it remains until you choose Copy or Cut again or you turn
off your computer. The Clipboard holds the contents of only one copy or cut operation
at a time.
