Default How do I stop a template format partway through a Word document?

I'm editing a document that someone else did using the Pleading template. I
need to insert a file at the end that is not to be in that template format,
but can't get the template "turned off" so it doesn't format the inserted
file. I've tried both page and section breaks with no success. Any ideas?

Really can't be done. You could spend the next week renaming the styles in
one of the documents, but tedious and hard to do. An easy alternative is to
output the documents separately to PDF, then combine them in Acrobat.

Thanks for the quick response, although in the meantime I found something
that helped and may also interest you - looking back through related
questions/answers I found others with the same problem, tried several of the
solutions and one worked. It was to do the Section page break, delete all
headers/footers and Same as Previous from that point forward, then insert the
new document. When I did that, the pleading format didn't appear in the
inserted file. This was a good place to look for information - thanks again
for responding.

I would have suggested using a section break. and making sure that
footers/headers are not continued and you also have to chekc on page
numbering, depending on how that was set up. My experience is that ou also
want to be sure that the file to be inserted does not have any styles with
the same name as in the underlying document, unless you want the styles to
match.
