@dmerkle1 can you please attach the source and destination documents and the value of the var UseDestinationStyles.

Howdy,

Thanks for the quick reply. Turns out, one of the styles in the Document being inserted was a character style that didn’t have a font selected. So I added some code to set the font to “Times New Roman” if it was null, and that fixed it.
