One way to help mitigate this problem is to insert section breaks before and after where the two-page document will be inserted.

If the margins in both documents are not the same, then the inserted document will be reformatted within the new margins and you end up with something that looks different than the original. When you insert one document into another, Word assumes that you want to use the same page margins as those in the receiving document, even if those are different than the margins in the original document. Consider, for a moment, the simple issue of page margins. Why? Because of the way that Word handles formatting. It is really hard to do this, with consistent results, in Word.

He wants to insert a two-page document into the middle of a longer document and keep the same formatting so that when inserted the two pages look the same as they do normally.

Randall wonders how he can insert a document into the middle of a larger document and keep the same look and formatting.
