TextEdit

[Tagletigre]

Body copy on a webpage might be typically Helvetica 18 pt. I copy a phrase, open up a TextEdit file, Paste, and the result is shown in 12 pt.
In my TextEdits Prefs I have 18 pt as the preferred font. How can I get the Paste to be the same size as the Copy?

Choose "Paste and Match Style" from the Edit menu.
