The clipboard data plugin allows users to copy and paste text between applications. You can install the clipboard data plugin on a server and it installs silently to clients.

f you use the clipboard data plugin with Microsoft Internet Explorer version 11 or with other browsers such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox, the plugin has a preview area where you can preview the image or text that is being pasted from the clipboard. However, if you use the clipboard data plugin with Microsoft Internet Explorer version 9 or version 10, the plugin does not have this preview area.
