Is it safe to copy & paste from EW to WP?

[B-P]

For the purposes of conversion, “is it safe” (Marathon Man) to copy and paste page content from a PC based Expression Web 1 static site to WordPress?

My concern is transferring junk code. I want to do this so that I can transfer the text format and links. I’m converting 3 of my sites which each have about 100 pages.

I tested it by coping and pasting one paragraph with text and 2 different links from Expression Web, NotePad, and TextPad to three WordPress test pages. When I look at the source code I cannot see any difference except Expression Web carried this code over with one of the affiliate links: alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" />

If it’s not safe, is there a clean way to do it whereby I can transfer the text format and links?

Your help will be much appreciated
