How do I copy a Word document and keep formatting in Excel?
The only way to copy a document and keep the formatting intact is to export it as an Excel file, then copy and paste it.
If you're doing this often enough, you might want to create a macro that does this for you. But you'd probably have to do it manually, which is probably too much work.
So here's how: Open the Word document. Select the text you want to copy. Right-click on the selection, then click "Paste special". Select "Keep formatting". You should end up with a copy of the document with all the formatting and formatting applied to the copy, exactly like you would if you copied the document to a new Word document.

How to convert Word file to Excel without losing formatting?
I want to know how to convert a Microsoft Word file to an Excel file without losing the formatting, I mean the font, size, etc.
When converting using the File -> Export as. Menu item then all formatting is lost.
I want to preserve formatting when exporting to Excel from Word, is that possible? You can use the "Save As" option in Word. Under "File Type" choose Excel/xlsm (or just make sure the "Save as type" menu item is set to Excel xlsm) The format won't be preserved in this case, but the font sizes, font colors, text styles and formatting will be saved.
Are you able to format Excel data after you copy it into Word?
One of our customers, a not-for-profit hospital, was having issues formatting Excel data into a Word document.
The data was copied directly from the Excel document and pasted into the Word document. Although the format was consistent throughout the entire document, it didn't look the same in the Word document. When I looked at the source code, I noticed that the data was formatted in Excel (as expected) but the formatting information was also pasted into the Word document.
It seems that it is not possible to paste formatted data from Excel into Word. What is the solution? Is there a way to copy/paste formatted data from Excel to Word without losing the formatting? I need to note that this does not apply to Excel tables. I am only talking about Excel charts or other shapes. Also, I'm not concerned about how the data is pasted to the document. The end result should be that the data is pasted without any formatting information in the document.
If you are able to format data as a Table, then I believe you can use Paste Special > Paste to Plain Text. If you try to select Paste special and click "Paste Special" it will take you to the Paste Options dialog box where you can choose to "Paste Special". This is an option you have that I've never used but others have used it successfully.
If that doesn't work, you could try using this trick to get the formatting information: Select the data. Right click on the data and select Copy. Paste the data into the blank cell above the data you want to copy. Paste Special > Paste Values and you'll have the same formatting as you had in Excel. This works fine if the data is already formatted, otherwise you'll lose the formatting. If you aren't able to use those methods, I think you're out of luck. You can, however, create an XML document and import that into a Word document. This would be one solution to preserving the formatting and keeping it the way it is.
I had the same issue with Excel and needed to format the data and then copy it over to Word. I had been using Excel to enter the data and then just copying the whole workbook to a new Word file. This worked fine, except that the formatting information (font, color, size, etc.
