Until recently, that (It appears) worked perfectly okay, but this
weekend for some unfathomable reason, the RTF files out of Ovation Pro,
which appear to load in Word only display as a blank document.

Try cut-and-paste from the windows version of O-Pro. Or use RiScript to create
a PDF and then cut and paste from that.

Cut and paste on Windows will only transfer text, you might as well save out a text file version. As to PDF, again you'll only get text, assuming the text is not mangled.

The other route that might work (and I'm not making any promises) is HTML. There are some third party HTML import/export filters. At best you might have bold and italic info preserved.
