Description DavidM 2018-01-13 01:09:31 UTC
Description:
There is a problem when I copy something (like an article) that I want to keep,  from some  web page or in this last  case today  from facebook, it does  not format properly; 

Example, it appears like this:

The lower triangle
 is the A-R-C triangle
-its points being 
AFFINITY, REALITY 
and COMMUNICATION. 
These are the three
 elements which combined
 give UNDERSTANDING.


Instead of like this as it should be:

The lower triangle is the A-R-C triangle-its points being AFFINITY, REALITY and COMMUNICATION. These are the three elements which combined give UNDERSTANDING.



Why does it do this?

If I paste it to google docs it does not do that.

Please fix it, so it pastes and appears in proper format, ....that is spread across the entire page.


I have a HP 500-118 desk top, computer with windows 10.

I mostly use firefox browser. 


An additional note:  This was an article that was first pasted to facebook, then I copied it and pasted it to my Libre Office program.  

But this problem  has occurred  over the yrs  from various sites.

I do not know if will happen from all types of sites.






Actual Results:  
If you copy something (like an article) from certain websites and paste it on Libre, sometimes the problem  as I explained, will occur.


I do not do all that much of this kind of stuff, so I cannot explain exactly.

But this has been happening for years now.

I think sometimes it is ok, it pastes in proper form.







Expected Results:
I do not know anything about this step.


Reproducible: Always
