That happens to me sometimes...if I write a post in Word and then copy-paste, sometimes the last paragraph comes out in a different font than the rest, or the whole of it is in a weird font. I think most of this site is in Arial or something similar, but I usually write in Times, so that might have something to do with it.
When I run into this situation, which is fairly often, I use a text editor in between. I paste the text to the editor, then copy it from the editor. This removes formatting, fonts, etc. It has to be a real text editor, not something that allows formatting.
Specific software such as Word may have the ability to copy text only.
