How can I paste a whole page of text into a scene and keep the formatting?
I don't seem to be able to find the right combination of things to do this.
I also want to use a windows font that isn't already in the game/scene.

In short, I don't think its possible. You would have to pull it in as plain text and then set it up on screen the way you want it to be. But I could be wrong.
Do NOT PM me your questions, because I likely will not respond. If I have replied to your question on the forum, keep using that topic. Thanks!

In a jam once I was in a hurry so I cheated and made my text a graphic instead because it didn't need to change.

Why do you want to do that? - I had the problem of adding verbose instructions and I just add it as a page in a blog on Wordpress  (which is free) with a weblink. You can make it look however you like on Wordpress.
   Adding a font just needs you to find its position in your operating system. You click on Font in resource. Click here to add a new font and then click the custom button to find the font- if you use a Windows  its in C:\WINDOWS\Fonts.
Note weblinks only work once the game is published.
