Elmar do you want copy anything from PDF to your Writer document? I just didn't understand your target and methods...
@Roman I have a large PDF and needed to copy many parts into a new document, resulting in many copies and pastes. After a number of instances of such select, copy, paste Writer froze (the period was less than 10mins- the interval between autosaves). Left it for a while but Writer did not unfreeeze, so had to cancel. After a second attempt, I opened up my document in v6.0 (the Repository version) and completed the exercise without incident - the copying and pasting from PDF to Writer took me more than an hour complete (large document). Hope that helps.
I can NOT confirm. Everything working very fast. Pasting 40 pages in 30 seconds.

Thanks for the report. I can't reproduce it; copying the 35 pages in single blink. No problem when copying it until 1237 pages.

From 2 crossed documents (example ; 1rst from page 0 to 64 and second from page 32 to 96 thinking for a save form of a great book), it's not easy to copy phe pages 40 to 41 from the one to the other because of freeze action of the application .... May be lost 10 minutes or more time to have a paste action not very perfect !
Elamr, is it possible to add a PDF-file and give informations abou the amount of text, somebody should copy to reproduce the bug. Perhaps this could help us. Thanks => NEEDINFO

I suspect that this had to do with the fact that documents originally created in MS Word can sometimes include hundreds of styles and, frankly, be a complete mess. I have learnt to work around this. I think you should just close this as resolved or worksforme (I don't see that option)
(In reply to Elmar from comment #12) > I think you should just close this as resolved or worksforme (I don't see > that option) Elamr, you find that option in the status menu. WORKSFORME means, that there was problem but it has gone (I don't think that this is the case here) => RESOLVED INSUFFICIENTDATA
