I'm no expert, but did your email that you copied from contain "English 
(Australian)?  I noticed that mine is English (USA) and wondered if there was a 
difference in the way content read.

Subject: Copy text from email paste into AOO Document FAIL

I typed a block of text into Mail on my iPad and sent the email to my iMac 
(late 2017 running Mojave 10.14.6). Opening Mail on the iMac, the email had 
been received successfully. 

After then opening AOO 4.1.11 on my I Mac and creating a new blank text 
document, I then copied the text from the received email in Mail and attempted 
to paste it into the blank AOO text document. The result was gibberish ; i.e. 
the text had disappeared with numerous lengthy blank spaces in lieu, 2 (yellow 
highlighted) squiggly red lines (which AOO generates to indicate 
unfamiliar/incorrect spelling in its normal operation in Text documents etc.), 
more blank space and finally the cursor indicating the end of the pasted text.  
Cursor position is green highlighted before and after paste operation.

In the attached file, to better illustrate the problem, I

A) opened AOO and created a new, blank text document (note position of cursor 
in top left corner),

B) copied a text passage from within the received email and

C) attempted to paste copied text into blank AOO document.

I will be most grateful for any advise users may offer.

Sincerely, Paul Collins.
