I think I "beat" you by about half a minute.
Thank you for the advice.

Use the htmltext instead of the (plain) text:
set the htmltext of fld x to the htmltext of fld y
The rtftext would work too, both carry styling and text size info. Using
plain text is just that, it is text without any style information.

How are you trying to export the text? Works alright here with Indy 8.1.4 and
MacOS 10.13.
Sample script that works for me:
on mouseUp
ask file "Give your file a name:”
put "file:" & it into tURL
if char - 1 to -4 of tURL <> ".rtf" then
put ".rtf" after tURL
end if
put rtfText
I like blue cheese . . .
But I don't like what happens when I try to export coloured text from
a field in LC 8.1.4 as the _colours_ are NOT exported.
This is ODD as a while back the colours were exporting . . . .
Mac OS 10.7.8, LC 8.1.4 Indy.
