Is it possible to paste a Word or Excel table in a quarto document?

[rgaiacs]

The way that a Word or Excel table is handle will depend of the text editor that you are using. Can you provide more details of your environment?

Just cut and paste a table from a Word document and paste it in a quarto document.

This is not a Quarto thing, but you can have extension in VSCode to do that, see https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/search?term=copy%20excel&target=VSCode&category=All%20categories&sortBy=Relevance.
But you won't get styling.

PS: we know how to copy/paste, but as said, copy/paste depends on the editor, i.e., VSCode for the extensions showed above.

I would personally run

quarto pandoc document.docx -t markdown 

and you can copy-paste the resulting markdown table in your document.

Indeed, although it is not a direct copy/paste and does not work for Excel document.

Thank you very much for the suggestions. I also found that the RStudio Addin datapasta can help. El mar, 11 jul 2023 a las 14:40, Mickaël Canouil ***@***.***>) escribió:
