It's hard to say with the level of details you have here.

If you're using the spice protocol and you have the guest agent (spice-vdagent) installed inside the VM then you'll be able to cut and paste in graphical consoles.

Oops, I apologize. I am using virt-install as follows to create the virtual machines and I am connecting to the virtual machines from a different physical machine using virt-manager or virt-viewer via SSH. I thought this combination was sharing the clipboard when everything was on Fedora 18, but since upgrading to Fedora 19 the clipboard does not seem to be shared.

      virt-install \
        --autostart \
        --channel unix,path=/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/guest.agent,mode=bind,target_type=virtio,name=org.qemu.guest_agent.0 \
        --connect qemu:///system \
        --disk vol=Guests/$domain \
        --extra-args "inst.ks=file:/$(basename $kickstart)" \
        --graphics spice \
        --initrd-inject $kickstart \
        --location http://192.168.$subnet.10/repos/fedora$releasever/iso \
        --name $domain \
        --network network=Subnet$subnet \
        --noautoconsole \
        --os-type linux \
        --os-variant fedora18 \
        --ram 2048 \
        --vcpus 2

Here is the XML definition of the virtual machine:
