[DUG-TO] cut/paste from word processors?

Hi all,

I've found that Drupal's easy-to-use text editors not at all useful if
someone wants to cut and paste already-formatted material from a word
processor or other PC software. The cut-paste works fine within the
editor itself, but not with stuff coming from other apps.

I've tried this with TinyMCE, FCKEditor and jWYSIWYG, which all mangle
incoming bullets and other formatting.

The problem has been noted at http://drupal.org/node/309828 without any
real resolution.

What's the best way to copy-paste from Word without losing the
formatting? Any suggestions are appreciated.
