How to set “Paste as plain text” as the default for Ctrl+V on a typewriter

[TEMPURA]

Hello, Daniel

Is it possible to configure the typewriter so that pasting text with Ctrl+V inserts plain text?

It's a hassle to have to right-click and select every time I paste, so if there's a way to set this up, I'd appreciate it if you could tell me.

I’ve run into the same thing with the Typewriter tool in PDF-XChange. As far as I know, there’s no built-in setting to make Ctrl+V default to plain text paste (unfortunately). What I usually do is paste into something like Notepad first, then copy from there—it strips all formatting automatically. Not ideal, but it works when I need to avoid weird fonts or styles getting carried over.

Hello TEMPURA,

You may want to assign your preferred shortcut key to the “Paste as plain text”（プレーンテキストとして貼り付け） command. It's not exactly the method you're looking for, but since you only need to use a different shortcut key when you want to paste as plain text, it shouldn't add much extra effort.
