Default How do I use word field when field is sometimes blank?
It is not usually the empty field that is the problem but the associated
spaces. You may need to place the field and its associated space or line
feed conditionally eg

{IF {Mergefield fieldname} "" "{Mergefield fieldname} "}
or
{IF {Mergefield fieldname} "" "{Mergefield fieldname}
"}
