    Status: Open => Answered

RaiMan proposed the following answer:
@ Calle
But Willie might be right: since paste() internally simply simulates a ctrl-v, there might be situations, where simulating key strokes (what type() does) is the only chance, since a ctrl-v might not be accepted by the GUI.

@Willie
So it is not a "bad" character problem.
Then it might be that type() fires too fast.

instead of:
txt = "some text\n"
type(txt)

try:
for c in txt:
    type(c)
    wait(t)

and try with different t values (starting with 0.1)
