Solution 2

Depends on what type of data is on the clipboard: you should check before you fetch it. See MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.clipboard.getdataobject.aspx[^]

Solution 3

Could you please try with that,

C#

IDataObject data = Clipboard.GetDataObject();
string str = Convert.ToString(data.GetData(DataFormats.UnicodeText));
UTF8Encoding enc = new UTF8Encoding();
byte[] arr = enc.GetBytes(str);
