Pasting text into both AV and Multi column scripts does not paste complete text segment

It seems to me that this function is pretty basic, but it doesn't work.

 

I have a prepared script done in Word that I'm trying to load into an AV script.  I select the "audio" column, copy the text that I want as a voiceover, and then try to paste it into the "Audio" column of the AV script. 

 

This is where it gets weird.  Instead of simply inserting the text, it adds a blank page before and after the desired page.  It inserts a portion of the copied text but cuts it off without extending it onto a second page.  There is no option to add additional pages to complete the text insertion.

 

The same thing happens when trying to insert text into a Multicolumn script.  A portion of the selected text is loaded and gives no option to complete the text insertion.

 

This fault makes the program essentially useless for me.

    Hi DrLarsen,

     

    This is a known issue with pasting/entering text that exceeds the length of a page in a single scene in AV/Multi-column scripts. For a workaround, break the text into smaller scenes so that the length of a scene does not exceeds the length of a page, and everything will work fine.

     

    Thanks

    Mayank
