Keep element styling while pasting HTML

[cpntgt]

I have not been able to find a plug and play solution for this yet. I want to use Quill as a RTE but need to display existing HTML content as is. I understand the concern and the reason for this, but there must be a wait to preserve HTML when pasted into the editor.

I also added the modules/htmlEditButton to view / edit html.
I am using basic Javascript with no framework.

An example of some existing content:
< div style="font-size: 15px; padding: 10px 0 20px 0;" > < / div >

I use the following to copy into the editor:
quill.clipboard.dangerouslyPasteHTML(content);

What I get, looks something like this:

< div > < / div >

How can I keep my HTML as is?
