Mail merge issue -- after merging, the font size changed in the merge fields from 12 pt to 14 pt

I use mail merge to create Separation Agreements/Releases in my job.  The main document is a Word document and the data source is an Excel file.  After merging the documents, the final (merged) document has changed the font size in certain fields from 12 pt. to 14 pt.  for some reason.  I can't figure out why or how this is happening.  The main Word document doesn't seem to have any formatting changes in the font size and the Excel data source uses an entirely different font and size anyway.  I have to go through the entire document and highlight the fields that are larger and change them to 12 pt.  Any solution to this problem?  Thanks.

If you want to send me a copy of the mail merge main document, I will investigate the issue.  Let me know which fields it is that exhibit the problem.
Hope this helps,
