I discovered that part of the problem is the conversion of certain characters (quotation marks for one) when pasting from (example) Notepad into a stack field. The quotation marks are sometimes converted to non-standard characters... This now reminds me of another text pasting problem I was having with custom properties. Pasting text into the contents field for a custom property was consistently stripping characters form my text. Mostly the semi-colon ";" (I was pasting JavaScript code). I had to manually input all of my line terminators (pretty annoying) every time I pasted. Maybe this is used as some internal delimiter?
