Typing in orbital elements is best avoided.
The MPC and JPL formats come from external sources like the MPC and JPL. So if you got the elements from one of these sources then you could paste the elements here for others to copy/paste.
The best way to share orbital elements between SkyTools users is through an stx file. The easiest way to do that is to create an observing/target list and put your minor planet in it. Then export the list to a .stx file via the Share/Export function on the planner/target selection tool. You can attach a .stx file here.
Others can save the .stx file and then read it via the Get Lists function.
