For our class project assignments
we must turn in our project assignment via text entry submission only (instead of a document file attachment upload.).
The only attachment allowed on this text box entry is ( image file or video file for comments)
My problem is the text entry field has a field limitation so when I copy and paste my entire word document , all my original fonts and formatting are changed, my text at the bottom half of document gets cut off.
What is the character limit for the text box entry? How can I work around this character limiting /formatting issue?
In citations italicized text and formatting are necessary and I need to post my entire document to (text box entry) unchanged.
I had emailed the full document to my instructor
(who wanted it only submitted via text box entry)
Please Help
Catalina Pacheco I found this question from 2016 that states that the text entry box is limited to 16384 characters. Here is a quick guide about How do I submit a text entry assignment? The text entry box will not keep the formatting of the document you copied and pasted your work from. So, it will show up just as text - with no formatting.
I suggest pasting in your work and then formatting as best you can using the text editor in the text entry box (bold and italics should be there for your use).
Your instructor may not know the benefits of allowing students to upload a Word or PDF file. SpeedGrader (What is SpeedGrader? ) is a powerful tool that allows instructors to comment, highlight and mark up documents submitted. Hopefully, in the future, you will be allowed to just upload your document complete with your formatting.
I hope this helps.
