NOW: I just ran up a styled text document in Ye Olde Appleworks
on my trusty G4 (colours, italics, funny fonts, different sizes) and copy-pasted it
across to a scrollable text-field in Studio dp-4 and:

1. Colours were preserved,

2. Italics were preserved,

3.  Different fonts were preserved,

Only the sizes got lost.

Am I reading you right, or do you mean pasting between text fields in RunRev?

interesting test here. Did the same copy paste from appleworks (which is carbon) into rev studio 3.5 (I will upgrade in a few days ;-)) and it kept color, font, style but lost size (which was 48, while the pasted text appeared to between 10 or 12 pt)). When setting the size to 48 inside rev, the text was resized, but the baseline was unchanged, and was much too high.

Now I did the same thing, but from pages '09 (and it is certainly cocoa). Everything was kept, except the baseline. I have to mention that the Pages pasting was done in the rev field just below the paste from AW.

Now, let me see; I put empty into the field thru the msg box and paste (command -c) from Pages into the field. Everything is OK except the baseline which is much too high, i.e., 3/4 of the text disappears atop (?) of the field.

What happens if you turn off fixedLineHeight for the field you are pasting into?
