I have prepared a number of forms in Word 2007. To create some of the input fields, I have used the Text Form Field function under Legacy Forms in the Controls group under the Developer tab. I have formatted the font in these fields as Verdana 10 black.
I want some of these input fields to appear as information in the header of the form, so have given each of these input fields a "Bookmark" name in the Text Form Field Options diaglog box. I have then inserted the fields I want into the header of the form using the CTRL+F9 shortcut. I want the font in the header to display as Verdana 8 blue, so have created a style for this.
To activate the form function, I protected the document.
My problem is that when the fields in the header are updated (calculated on exit, which I usually do with a page preview), the font style reverts to Verdana 10 black instead of staying as Verdana 8 blue. Sometimes, the formatting does seem to be preserved for the first word or two, but is not maintained after about the thrid word.
I am using Windows XP Professional Version 2002.
