You should override Writer used in your EditorKit to skip some Element's content.

To prevent paste you can add a DocumentFilter in simplest case but in some cases paste directly changes Document's structure so you should override Reader which creates the structures.

As hint work with MouseEvent and KeyEvent and restrict text selection using mouse and key press event of `CTRL+V'

Or you can also use : textPane.setTransferHandler(null);

see docs
