Listing description

I am creating a new listing and have prepared a description in a word document but I cannot get the text to cut and paste.  Do I really have to type it all over again in the box?

The listings textbox does not accept formatted text.

 

So (for example, there are more options, depending on WORD version) you first need to save the Word document as plain tekst file (.txt) and then do the copy/paste from that one.

 

Or open Notepad (or other plain tekst editor), and paste text first in there, then copy text again from editor screen.

 

Also the listings textbox has limited amount of characters, do not exceed.

Thanks, I finally figured out that Airbnb limits you to a description of 500 words, which was the problem.
