  • Free, simple software for entering text strings of text using keyboard shortcuts

  • Available from https://www.softwareok.com/?seite=Microsoft/QuickTextPaste:

    • Click “Download,” then click “QuickTextPaste.zip” – the download should begin automatically (see video below for demo)

    • Extract the files and open the file “QuickTextPaste.exe” to run the program (see video below for demo)

  • Note: Alternatively, the software is available from several other sites (search for Quick Text Paste latest version download). Be aware that very old versions remain available online; you should download version 8.03 or higher.

  • The program comes pre-populated with sample shortcuts. Feel free to delete these by right-clicking.

  • It is straightforward to create a new shortcut: Enter your text string in the “Add text” box; use the dropdown menus at the bottom right to assign a keystroke; then click “Add.” The new shortcut will appear in the upper pane, and is active immediately. (See video below for demo.)

  • The keyboard shortcuts are active everywhere on your computer (FOLIO, Connexion, email, web browser, word documents, etc.), so take care not to assign key combinations that you are using elsewhere.
