Pasting a note from Evernote

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Clipping a page to Evernote
2. Copying clipped note
3. In Keynote, Paste Special >  RTF 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect a fairly similar version of the Evernote clip to populate a node in 
Keynote file.

What version are you using? On what operating system?
1.7.9.4 NF beta 4 (7/1/2013), Windows 7

Please provide any additional information below.
I have collections of html files gathered over time, that I'm trying to add to 
Keynote with my other notes.  I'm getting pretty poor results importing the 
HTML files, but I found that (once or twice) I got a pretty faithful copy if i 
clipped the html files/websites to Evernote first, then copied Evernote's RTF 
version.  If there are any ways to improve the HTML import functions, that 
would be great, otherwise I can stick with this method as long as I can get 
past this kind of bug.

I should add that importing HTML using the shared converter library fails every 
time, and using the internet explorer library doesn't retain formatting.  The 
MS Word library is the most reliable, but it still struggles.  I thought that 
pasting from Evernote included embedded images, but I was wrong.  
Can the conversion of HTML to RTF be enhanced at all, or is RTF simply too 
limited?  
I have to wonder if HTML support shouldn't be a next step.
