Almost working. Control characters like line breaks in imported OO.o files are still displayed as red squares and not honoured after pasting (ie. no line breaks).

Paragraph separator issue when copying text from eternal app into text frame is now fixed. Are there other issues to fix? If so, please provide place or sample file.

Seems fixed.

Note: when copying text OpenOffice does not use a specific unicode character value for linebreaks. It uses a simple linefeed (Ox0A) for linebreak and 'carriage return + linefeed' (0xOD + 0xOA) for paragraph separator. As OxOD and OxAD values are also paragraph separators depending on the platform and the text editor, that means we can't get line breaks from OpenOffice without causing major troubles when copy/pasting text from other editors. Those line breaks will be mapped to paragraph separators consequently. That problem does not exists when importing OpenOffice document as OpenOffice uses a specific <text-linebreak> element in this case.
