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.
