Copying and Pasting

By default, you can copy and paste from the local client system to a remote desktop or published application. You can also copy and paste from a remote desktop or published application to the client system, or between two remote desktops or published applications, if a Horizon administrator enables these features.

You can copy and paste text and images, including RTF (Rich Text Format).

The copy and paste feature has the following limitations.

■	You cannot copy and paste files between a remote desktop and the file system on the local client computer.
■	If you are copying formatted text, some of the data is text and some of the data is formatting information. If you copy a large amount of formatted text or text and an image, when you attempt to paste the text and image, you might see some or all the plain text but no formatting or image. The reason is that the three types of data is sometimes stored separately. For example, depending on the type of document you are copying from, images might be stored as images or as RTF data.
■	If the text and RTF data together use less than maximum clipboard size, the formatted text is pasted. Often the RTF data cannot be truncated, so that if the text and formatting use more than the maximum clipboard size amount, the RTF data is discarded, and plain text is pasted.
■	If you are unable to paste all the formatted text and images you selected in one operation, you might need to copy and paste smaller amounts in each operation.
