This may be similar to a problem in copying from Emacs and pasting
into Gnumeric. Any way try this:

1) In EMACS do:  M-x clipboard-kill-ring-save RET
2) Then highlight the text and save it (either withe mouse or by
C-SPACE, followed by ESC-w, at the end of the region to be copied.

See this e-mail:
