They may also include bold, italic, and hyperlinks, all of which are supported by Org. Is there any way to preserve this formatting if I copy-paste into org/emacs, the same way it's preserved when I paste into Word or into a Google Document/email? Or is this fundamentally difficult in emacs? It would be a tremendous feature. - Tory
