Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 53473
Copy and paste HTML text is truncated in Writer
Last modified: 2005-08-18 10:45:19 UTC
I'm using the 680m112 build with the german language pack installed. Using DicOOo-1.5.3 I downloaded various dictonaries for English, German and Polish. When I load the page http://www.beyond3d.com/forum/showpost.php?p=543166&postcount=1 in both Mozilla Firefox or IE6, and I try to copy and paste the quote text into Writer, the text gets truncated after 19 pages (always at the line "because of inefficiencies with dealing with ") (DIN A4, Times New Roman, 12). I can't even continue typing after this word. If I add a linebreak (i.e. I press enter once) I can continue to type, and paste the rest of the text. If I try to remove the artificial linebreak then (after pasting in the rest of the text) the text gets truncated to 19 pages again. Pasting the text into other applications (WordPad, Editor, ProgrammersNotepad2) works fine. The attachment shows the file in the final stage. Green is what was copied and pasted when I first tried to copy and paste, red what was added afterwards. If you go to the first red letter and press backspace in order to delete the linebreak, the whole file messes up. Expected behaviour: Pasting the text should include the whole text selected, and I should be always able to type in text.
