It's not possible without a wrapper. Our text editor runs within Director, so we paste the text into a Director cast member, then send it through to Flash. Unfortunately this messes up with non-Western text, so we search for "?" characters, and if there are more than a few in a row, we throw an alert that recommends the users use Ctrl-V instead. Never really understood the value of this security feature, especially given that Shockwave doesn't have it.
