I tried to add the plugin myself but I failed with our build tools

Note that the instructions in the readme are out of date see pixelsock/tinymce-paste-from-word-plugin#2

@brianteeman unfortunately the plugin has a peer dependency to 6.8.3 which requires npm i --force. Also the exported js is broken, so even with --force it's broken. Anyways the draft PR is here: #46464

[brianteeman]

That's fixed in #2 I believe

[dgrammatiko]

Unfortunately that PR needs to be merged and then a package should be published in the npm. If you don't mind asking them to have a version as an esm module (would be easier for our tools)

[brianteeman]

Will ask
