Reproduced on Win XP SP1 Oo 2.0.4 as described in the steps.

Other considerations:
- Normal paste _does_ Work. I see now error.
- Doing a special paste with link enabled pastes a 'A?' sequence of characters.
- Updating the link in the new file will _not_ solve the problem.

I have attached a small screen shot of what the unreadable character looks like.
