"input is invalid" error

This looks like you get an error from the server adaptor trying to
convert between UTF-8 and the internal encoding of Squeak. Probably
the Word document (or the clipbloard) contains invalid UTF-8
sequences.

The real solution would be to ensure that the text is a valid UTF-8
sequence, but I frankly don't know how to achieve that with Word. The
other possibility is to disable the conversion in Squeak. Evaluate
something along:

   WAKom withAllSubclassesDo: [ :each | each stop ].
   WAKom startOn: 8080

Cheers,
Lukas

When you choose File/Save As (and choose Text File - *.txt in the "Save As Type:" combo box) you should get a conversion dialog with a radio button for Other Encoding. Check that and the list box to right will be enabled. Scroll down to find UTF-8 and select it. If there are characters that will not convert correctly you will see a warning below the list box and the offending characters will show up in RED in the Preview text box. These MIGHT get changed to ?'s in the resulting text file. If not, try checking Character Substitution and see if that works. If not that doesn't work you should remove/edit those portions before copying/pasting.
Hope this helps
John

I guess I should have mentioned somewhere in there that this is all done from Microsoft Word... =)
