the place where you wish the information you cut from the original document
to be placed and on the menu line click on Edit>Paste or Ctrl+V. |

When you COPY the text, it is placed on the clipboard and the original document also still has the copied text.
When you CUT the text, you also place it on the clipboard, but it is removed from its original location.
