Most of the organic acids are adsorbed on column (stationary Phase) or give broad peaks in chromatograph, try to get the best column with suitable stationary phase.....I think 100% non-polar column might work in your case.

It is possible to detect formic acid with FID but sensitivity is not so good. See this discussion:

Use HPLC with RID detector, best method.
