How can I insert the current date into a template and keep the end format as
specified in my template?

IE. I define a field as Eurostile 13 but when the actual date is inserted
into my document it is Times New Roman 12.

Open the field code (Shift+F9) and add

\*charformat

to the end of the code inside the braces (replacing \*mergeformat if
that's there now). Format the code in the font and size you want. Then
press F9 to update it.
