Description TAB 2014-09-26 19:58:33 UTC 
Created attachment 83994 [details]
contains string to copy

Open copyPaste.odt; select 'def', hit ^c to copy it to the clipboard.
Open a plain-text file, paste (^v) into it: get '□0: def'; the '□0: ' is spurious. (I know where it originates, but it's still unexpected.)
	If you try to insert a bookmark and hit ^v to call it 'def', you get a message saying the colon (in '□0: def') îs illegal.
	PasteSpecial(^$V) does not work to insert a bookmark; in the search window (^f), it jumps out and inserts in the text. There, the number is stripped in HTML mode --what I wanted, but not where I wanted. tricky!

This is a potential duplicate of https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=63827.

I downloaded the attached document and performed the following steps in OO 4.1.1 on Windows 7:

1. Selected “def” and hit ctrl+C to copy
2. Insert -> Bookmark...
3. In the title box, hit ctrl+V to paste

Expected: The text “def” appears in the text box
Actual: An error message appears “The following characters are not valid and have been removed: .”

Pasting elsewhere in the document seems to work correctly (with only the “def” being pasted), but it malfunctions in many other cases. Attempting to paste “def” into other places, such as the Find Text field or if you open a new OO document, results in the numbered style being pasted as well. Pasting into Word, Text Pad or even a browser to perform searches also results in the numbered style being pasted as well. 

This bug can also be replicated by performing the following steps in a new OO document:

1. Type “This is a test”
2. Turn numbering on by clicking the button in the toolbar or hitting F12
3. Select “test” and hit Ctrl+C
4. Paste into the destination of your choosing (Find Text, new Writer document, MS Word, Textpad, Notepad, Google Chrome, etc)

Copied text from a numbered list should not include the number as well. This makes it difficult to use OO Writer with other applications.
