Whenever I cut and paste text from either Word or Pages, into Scrivener, it results in a very heavy-weight font that’s almost unreadable. It looks extremely bolded, but it’s not set on bold. If I copy and paste the formatting from another chapter created in Scrivener, then I lose italics and other formatting that would take me a long time to go back and fix by hand. How do I fix this?
What happens when you pick from the Edit menu “paste and match style …” ?

Same thick-weighted font, and I lose all my italics.
Never mind! Just figured it out. Even though my font and formatting looked correct in Pages/Word, I changed the paragraph style to “Body”, then reformatted the indents, font, etc back to how I had it set before. Now it pastes into Scrivener correctly.
