# Clipboard

Copy text and images between your local computer and remote session.

PrimalDesk supports clipboard sharing for **text and images** between your local computer and the remote session, including Remote Apps. Copy content in one application and paste it into an application on the other side using the usual Copy and Paste commands.

The receiving application must accept the content you copied. For example, paste an image into an editor that supports images, rather than a plain-text field.

> **Files are not transferred through the clipboard.** File copy and paste is blocked by policy. Copying image content is supported; copying an image file in a file manager is a file-transfer operation and is not supported through this feature.

This guide describes the current development and testing phase.
