The issue I'm having when trying to paste from Word involves apostrophes and elipses.  For some reason these characters are not showing up.
 
After I initally paste the content it appears correctly, until I hit update.
 
I even tried copying directly from a text document, same problem occured.
 
I noticed though if I edit the HTML directly I can add the characters.  But this is not an option, as the amount of content that is being entered is far too great.
 
Please advise.  (The excerpt below from another post did not solve the issue [clean code option]).
 
 
Thanks!

"When you copy from the word, the html content in clipboard is quite messy and a bit bigger.
 
When you paste this content to the editor,  If you choose clean the code function , we will clean the content for you. The content will be cleaned as the standard HTML code. But you may lose some formatting.
 

If you don’t want to lose your word formatting, please choose not clean your code.

Hope it helps."
