When completing a portfolio entry you're required to fill in a written narrative. To prevent your current session from timing out, we recommend you write your narrative in an editor such as WordPad or Notepad and then copy and paste it in to the entry once you've filled in all of the fields. You can paste from word, but most of the formatting will be stripped out. Word contains a whole bunch of extra non-html hidden code which not only bloats the submission but makes it unreadable by anything other than word once submitted.
