Description kuneho 2002-05-18 10:37:41 UTC 
Say for example I copied and pasted text from a webpage which exceeds a page.  
What Write does:
(1) paste the text starting from page 2 (the insertion was in page 1 of a new 
document when I pressed Ctrl+V), in effect inserting a blank page 1 before 
doing the pasting.

(2) truncate part of the original text, which does not appear at all in the 
document window of Write.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong here?  My current workaround is 
copying and pasting the text in separate batches.  But it's sort of an 
inconvenience as I have to estimate the volume of text that Write will accept.

Vince does this problem still exists in the latest version of OOo?

It is possible to do a Paste Special and paste the web page in as 
unformatted text.

Yes it is possible to paste web page as unformatted text by using 
Paste Special. On the other hand, per my experience, the problem does 
not always occur. For certain web pages (long as these may be), 
pasting them directly into Writer does not cause any problem, while 
for other web pages, the problem occurs.

Note: I still am using OpenOffice.org 1.0.0 as I currently can only 
access the internet using dial-up and it would be hard to download 
almost 50MB of file.
Comment 6 stefan.baltzer 2003-04-16 18:37:13 UTC 
An (already targeted) problem in OO Writer is that page breaks within
table cells are impossible (see issue 2109). So this one is a duplicate.
