Word – retain formatting from source document in mail-merge

mail-mergemicrosoft wordtext formatting

I have set up a mail-marge in Word 2003. The source is a document where each field is a formatted text as the following one:

I have different pieces of text to insert.

However, when I insert such a Merge Field in my primary document, it losts its original formatting. Is it possible to retain all the formatting I have set in the source document file?

Best Answer

Try using "REF" instead of "MERGEFIELD". It's a little strange, but I found it to preserve formatting with superscripts, and bolded characters.
