SPR# SSHE4TFPF5 - Fixed a problem where users could not paste more than 1500 characters from the Notes client into an RTF or into other applications such as WordPad.
Technote Number: 1102794

Problem:
This issue can occur if you have set the 'Import/Export Characters' setting in
your Notes User Preferences to "Codepage 1200 (Unicode)". There is a limit on
the number of characters one can copy to the clipboard. To check the current
setting for the Import/Export Characters property, select File, Preferences,
User Preferences; select the International pane in the User Preferences dialog
box which appears, and look at the choice next to the 'Import/Export
Characters:' property.
This issue was reported to Lotus Quality Engineering, and was addressed in
Notes 5.0.7a Client and Notes 5.0.8 Client.
