I can't reproduce it in

Version: 5.3.3.2
Build ID: 1:5.3.3~rc2-0ubuntu0.16.10.1~lo0
CPU Threads: 4; OS Version: Linux 4.8; UI Render: default; VCL: gtk3; Layout Engine: new;

Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ?
I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.

Updated to Version: 5.3.3.2
data now being copied across, however there is a loss of formatting (tabs and spaces) which results in the dimensions of the comment box being reduced. 
eg
8 x £7  		= £56
1 x £10  		= £10
Total  	  	= £66

comes out as 
8 x £7  		= £56
1 x £10  		= £10
Total  	  	= £66

That's interesting it's only the display that is different. I edited the comment and copied it there.

On screen It displays like 
8 x £7  		
= £56
1 x £10  		
= £10
Total  	  	
= £66

This is also what you get when you edit the comment, meaning a resizing is needed to correct the formattiung
Regards
Bob.
