Nearly - you're simply toggling between two representations of the fields: one shows the field value; the other shows the field code. For a mergefield, you can see the value from the data source by previewing the results.

And when asked to print the document showing the field codes, all the placeholders will be shown in { MERGEFIELD Company } sort of way. Right?
Not unless you print the document with the 'Print field codes instead of their values' option checked. Without that, the printout will show «Company».
