I'm not sure if this information helps but this is what I have found with both TinyMCE on Drupal Vers. 5 and Drupal Vers. 6.

1) When I copy and paste multiple paragraphs from a text document, in order to get the paragraphs to occur in web page content I need to add an extra blank line between each paragraph before I do the copy. I haven't found any good simple text editors that can do this as a single find and replace operation across a document so I am putting the text into Dreamweaver first which I am just using as a text editor for this.

2) When you paste text into TinyMCE you get totally different results when you just paste using Control V directly within the wysiwyg content as opposed to using the Paste text button. The results look the same but the HTML is quite different. If you use Control V directly (assuming you have added an extra line between paragraphs) you just get <br> s separating the paragraphs. If you use the text paste button you get the paragraphs enclosed in <p> and </p> tags. The text paste button also converts special characters to their ampersand codes. For both of these reasons, I believe that you should always use the text paste button rather than directly pasting text into the content.

Also note that the way you use the text paste button in Internet Explorer is quite different to that of other browsers such as firefox. Regardless of this, I think that the result is the same.

Hope this helps
