copying text from hotlink module

hey all

im trying to edit the hotlink i have for general notes and make some amendments. 

the module was created in AC 19 and now im using AC 25. the issue is sometime when i open the module from inside the pln file as a (open in new instance) it shows partial parts of the text and not the whole thing and different style (looks the same text as i initially edited before making module).

 

another issue is when i open the pln file externally and try to copy and paste into a fresh new pln file it paste everything in the same ref. point over each other and i cant seem to figure out how to fix this issue.

please find snippets below.

are the drawing scales the same between your origin file (v19) & the file you're pasting it to (v25)?

 

also, are the text boxes in v19 actual Text or Labels? because i was going to also suggest checking the anchor points. anchor points matter with Labels & not so much with Text.
