Has this bug been addressed yet? In a thread two months ago someone
from adobe said there would be a fix soon. When I open a Word file in
FrameMaker, FM cannot find any paragraph returns (for instance, if you
try to do a replace of \p-space to \p to get rid of leading spaces on
paragraphs), apparently because of some invisible, uncopiable
characters from Microsoft. The file can be saved as a MIF and
re-opened to get rid of them, but since I routinely need to open and
process 96 files at a time, this is an unpleasant workaround.
