When I copy a text from a odt file and paste special to another as DDE link, I loose the format (bold, italic, highlighted and the like). It would be very useful for academic work keep the format, so that the content be as readable as possible. Thanks!
Duns, thanks for reporting the bug. Could you please add an example for source document and document after pasting? Thiass would make it easier to verify the bug. Thanks => NEEDINFO
Created attachment 159348 [details] text formatted in document source you can see same words in italic
Created attachment 159349 [details] text pasted as DDElink - without format you can see that italic has disappeared
Thank you. I mean any odt document; with these steps 1) select formatted text in document (odt) A, 2) copy 3) go to document B (target) 4) paste special as DDElink: you will loose the format. I add two screenshort

(In reply to Duns from comment #2) > Created attachment 159348 [details] > text formatted in document source is it possible to add this text as odt-file (not the whole text of course but that short part?)
Sure: I add it as attachment
Created attachment 159354 [details] here you can see in a odt file an example you can see the text source and the psted one as DDE-link: the second is unformatted

What type of object is the "Text source" paragraph? If I do it from scratch, the formatting is retained just fine.
