That doesn't answer your original question though unless your experience with the likes of the above applications is different. If so, I can only say that I am doing something clever  (but don't ask me what it is that I am doing  ). |
@AnotherCat - thanks for the feedback, see attachment to see what I get when I copy pasta from the calibre reader to MS Word 2007.
I'm not running any clipboard extenders (because I've disabled it)
Notepad++ is one program I use that does ignore the HTML, I know this because I use it as the place to offload the HTML bloat before copying into Blogger & Word Press comments or Word documents. I just discovered that Live Writer also ignores the HTML.
This is not a new problem, I've had it since I installed Calibre ~18 months ago, so why has it taken me this long to complain. Well, I'm a fault tolerant person, but yesterday I ran into the issue several times, so it was a case of...

Often wondered if this a case of "Like this for everyone or just me?"
