How to retain formatting for complex Google Docs
As mentioned in our "Features & Limitations" article, complex Spreadsheets & Google Drawings might not retain their original formatting during a standard migration. If you would like to retain the formatting on these documents, we have a solution:
- Log into the old domain account
- Share your new domain account on the affected documents
- Inside each document (when logged in to your new domain account) click "File" and "Make a Copy." This will make a new copy on your new domain that is not linked with the old domain.
- You can then share any users with the new version.
Note: we are currently developing the ability to do this programmatically. Our new version of our software will address this issue.
