paste some artwork from a drawing to another. Anyway, I don't see a way to

I am automating a task in Illustrator by means of Actions.

In particular, I copy/paste some artwork from a drawing to another. Anyway, I don't see a way to control where the pasted artwork will land in the destination drawing, and I have seen a difference in behavior between different versions of Illustrator.

Any hint on how this can be mastered ?

You can set the exact position of one of the 9 reference points of the copied artwork using the Transformation panel while recording your script.

Are you using paste in front, or paste in back (ctrl + f/ctrl+b)? That should work. But i do suggest you use an alternate approach. You can place things in documents so all you really need is a document with placed items as a template and then just change the link on demand.

But its a bit hard to be more constructive than this. Because you are not describing what you want to achieve, just what you think is the thing you should do. Given that you have to ask there is a good chance that there is a more conductive and/or simpler approach.
