I see I didn't actually answer your question.
Once you have copied a file, you can then open the program you want to save it into - usually Word, Paint - someplace where you can paste things. Look when the program is open and there will be a little icon (button in the top area) that looks like a clipboard with paper beside it. When you point to the button, the word paste should appear. Simply click that button and your pattern will appear in the document you have opened. If you can't find the clipboard button, to to the word Edit at the top, click on it, then down to the word Paste and click it. Same thing, different way.
