If you’re specifically talking about Google Docs, it’s not possible to our knowledge since their change:

> Hey Ayelen! I’ve seen this recently as well and unfortunately you won’t be able to copy/paste images from a Google Doc into your community. It looks to be a security feature that Google has implemented. Zapier has an [article](https://zapier.com/blog/why-cant-you-copy-and-paste-in-google-docs/) that dives into this a bit. You should still be able to copy/paste from other sources like Pages, Microsoft Word, Pinterest, etc.
I don’t know if it would be possible for Discourse to be able to paste Base64 images as regular images in a post. That could be worth a post on #Contribute > Feature I guess.
As a practical example, if we have a Google Doc ([Test Discourse base64 image - Google Docs](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gIjLbQPZXZTvTnbtru6tmjUrysPrgcu4TurY996_5os/edit?usp=sharing)) and we copy all of it, here’s the Windows 11 clipboard content according to Clipview ([Windows clipboard raw viewer](http://www.peterbuettner.de/develop/tools/clipview/))
