Hi,

Using NSServices, I'm not receiving data for the PBoard types 
expected.  For example, I would expect to get NSHTMLPBoardType from 
Safari if I select the entire page.  I would expect to get 
NSRTFDPBoardType from TextEdit if I select the entire contents of an 
rtfd document.  I receive neither.  In fact, under Leopard, I don't 
see anything useful in the pasteboard.  There is a pasteboard type 
"dyn.agu8y63....." which shows up whether I have selected rtfd text 
or html text.  It appears to be a dynamic UTI, but the data it 
references also seems to be plain text.

At least, under Tiger there were some flavors I could use to get all 
the data.  Is the Carbon Pasteboard Manager any better?  I thought 
Apple was discouraging Carbon use.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated,
Denise
