Sadly not - I need to be able to use different styles within the same field. For example: "Here is some sample text about a topic. Sometimes I need to change fonts to display symbols like this <symbolfont>a</symbolfont> and then switch back to continue the text. I often need to switch multiple times in a block <symbolfont>x</symbolfont>." The text is dynamically populated from external sources - so the placement and number of the style changes is not consistent - therefor I cannot pre-determine their placement with separate text fields.

Ah darn, this is a major blocker for me. Using inDesign has become prohibitively expensive but my projects all involve data merging blocks of text with mixed fonts (for symbols and such). I was finding Affinity Publisher so much more intuitive and user friendly but, if I cannot mix my fonts on data merging, I cannot continue to use this product. That's a real shame. I think that leaves me up a creek without a paddle
