--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Thanks for filing, but absent specific sample document and STR this looks to be
a usage issue.

Usage require one to manage formatting of target paragraph, or better work with
styling, so when one pastes they avoid unexpected direct formatting the
content.

Here, depending on exactly what you have selected and copied from the source
document the Default paste, e.g. <Ctrl>+v shortcut, will include the formatting
of the copied content which will be appended/inserted to the target paragraph's
style and any direct formatting applied.

Depending on your needs (and what/how you have selected) choosing one of the
Paste -> Paste Special -> 'More Options...' dialog format choices might be the
better choice, including an 'Unformatted text' .

You can use a clipboard utility to examine exactly what you have 'copied' and
the forms it is available to 'paste'.

But for this issue, please provide test documents--source and target--with
steps to reproduce, otherwise this issue is not actionable and => NAB
