I've been having a simiilar problem importing text files into InDesign. They've looked good in the preview but were all gobbledegook with lots of dreaded pinkness when I imported them.

I finally thought to check the import filter options and discovered that I had Unicode format selected. I switched it to ASCII and bingo.

Which leads me to suspect that you're having something similar happen to you. The copy is working with one encoding but the paste is using another and the result is lots of little arrows.

But I haven't a clue how you'd get out of this mess.
