Error description

• Pasting text data makes to lose the existed format on rich text
  field.
  
  When copying and pasting text data on rich text field, indent is
  already
  inputted on the rich text field, the pasted text data isn't
  indented.
  Or marker list is inputted on the rich text field and paste text
  data on the
  field, the pasted text data isn't listed.
  
  If pasting text data on Word or WordPad document, the existed
  format isn't lost.
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Create a text data on NotePad
  2. Launch Notes Client and create a new document that has rich
  text field
  3. Input indent (or marker list, number list) on rich text
  field
  4. Copy Step1's text data
  5. Paste it at the indented paragraph of the rich text field
  6. You will see the pasted text isn't indented, it is aligned to
  left (the
  existed format is lost)
  
  If using [Paste special] - [Text] at Step5, this problem is also
  reproduced.
  But if some characters exist on the paragraph, the pasted text
  is also indented.
  
  Customer request that pasting text data doesn't make to lose the
  existed format
  on rich text field like as Word or WordPad.
