That is what I was thinking.

There is a maximum length of a single paragraph that has been mentioned on this list in the past. If what you are pasting is all a single paragraph then this could be the case. Try breaking up the paragraph earlier on and see what happens.
One suggestion I would have is when you paste from the web, select edit > paste special and select unformatted text and see what happens.

Hey guys! I've been using OpenOffice for quite a while, and I recently upgraded to the 2.0 Beta. I have a very bizarre problem.....
I create a text document. I go to cut-n-paste in text-only content from a web page (about 20 pages worth....I know it's a lot, but bear with me :) ), and it only pastes in about the first 14 pages. It cuts it off in mid-sentence.
Now.....to test the problem....I opened a *new* document, and just typed in a row of x's ("xxxxxxxx", etc.), and copy/pasted that for quite a long time. Somewhere on page 14 or so, it won't let me type any more characters in. I mean, no more typing, no more pasting, no more characters in any way, shape, or form. I can still work with what I have, but can't add any more.
As another test, I copy/pasted the same text into WordPad, and saved it as an RTF file. Wordpad accepted all the text, wrote the RTF, and it was all there when I re-opened it in Wordpad. Try opening it in OpenOffice, it cuts it off somewhere around page 14 in mid-sentence.
I'm really hoping there's some setting somewhere that I missed, but I'm completely stumped. It doesn't make any sense....anybody got any ideas?
