Alignment problems when Pasting

Hi,

I was planning to use OneNote to help me organize/store my guitar tabs.
However, whenever I paste a tab from another source (e.g. the Web) the
alignment is always off such as below:

|-3-0-1h3-1-0---1-|-0-----0---------|-----------------|-------------0-1-|
|-------------3---|---1h3---3-1-0---|-1p0-1-----1p0---|-----------------|
|-----------------|---------------0-|-------0h2-----2-|-0--------------*|
|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|---3-2-0--------*|
|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|---------3-------|
|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|

This happens even when I use the Paste Options "Keep Source Formatting."
However, when I copy & paste in Microsoft Word and then copy & paste in
OneNote (while keeping source formatting), the alignment problem no longer
exists.

I was wondering if there was a way to avoid this alignment problem without
having to keep pasting things in Word first? Thanks!

Sincerely,
Sarah

What if you screen grab (Windows Key + S) the tabs instead of
copy/pasting them?

Could you include a link to an example web page that demonstrates the
pasting problem?
