Blank spaces are removed when copying text from Microsoft Word to a free-form text in ARIS. It occurs randomly, not with all the blank spaces of a text. Did someone experienced this?

I cannot reproduce it with your text in Microsoft Word 2007. Perhaps the blanks in your Word document between the words "first free" or "allows intuitive" are not normal blanks but some other special characters. So if you have still the problem, please give me your Word-document. You can do this by clicking the icon in the upper right corner of your profile (tooltip: "edit").

Microsoft Word 2007 document attached. There are no special characters and the blanks are removed randomly.
