The piece
Paste your piece here — from Word, Google Docs, a PDF, anywhere. Formatting is kept when your paste has it. Put the headline on the first line: it stays in your article until you click Auto-format & fill remaining fields, which moves it into the Headline field so it is not published twice. Nothing is taken out of your piece until you press that button.
Formatting comes across where the file has any: .docx and .rtf keep bold, italics and subheads, .txt has none to keep. A .docx brings its photos; the others cannot, so upload those below. The headline stays in the article until you press Auto-format.
Details
