The problem is quite different: and this only became clear when I tested
your script inwith my Devawriter Pro
and outwith it in a simpler stack.
The problem is that the text that becomes colourised is then moved intil
another field, and then is exported from
that field; during the movement from the first field to the second one
its styling is lost:
setthetextoffld "fRESULT" ofcard "ATTIC" tothetextoffld "fRESULT" ofcard
"DEVANAGARI"
setthetextSizeoffld "fRESULT" ofcard "ATTIC" tothetextSizeoffld
"fRESULT" ofcard "DEVANAGARI"
Presumably (?) I will need a third line something like this:
setthetextColoroffld "fRESULT" ofcard "ATTIC" tothetextColoroffld
"fRESULT" ofcard "DEVANAGARI"
indeed, that is what I am about to try.

How are you trying to export the text? Works alright here with Indy 8.1.4 and
MacOS 10.13.
Sample script that works for me:
on mouseUp
ask file "Give your file a name:”
put "file:" & it into tURL
if char - 1 to -4 of tURL <> ".rtf" then
put ".rtf" after tURL
end if
put rtfText of field 1 into url tURL
end mouseUp

I like blue cheese . . .
But I don't like what happens when I try to export coloured text from
a field in LC 8.1.4 as the _colours_ are NOT exported.
This is ODD as a while back the colours were exporting . . . .
Mac OS 10.7.8, LC 8.1.4 Indy.
