Set a default text sixe

Hi experts.
I am reading a pdf ebook and whenever i come across some interesting lines, i jst copy them and paste in my word document.But when i paste, the font size is 8.5.So i have to change the font size to 12 and also the font to verdana everytime i paste something.It is very annoying.
Can we fix it to default 12 and verdana?However i must be able to override some of them manually later.
Any solution to this problem greatly appreciated .

Thank you.

Sounds like you're trying to paste in Plain Text (i.e., just the text, without any formatting). As far as I know Word 2003 does not have the capability to do that out-of-the-box. I recommend trying a little free app called PureText:

You can set this app up to use any hotkey you want, and it will paste plain text into any program you want.

Hope this helps.
