[Irl-dean] Customizing MS Office interface

[Eoin Campbell]

If you want to create accessible PDF or Word documents,
the fact that the author has modified the styles  may not matter that
much, as long as the style name is unchanged, I think.

You could alter our template to automatically remove the Format menu,
but you might get author resistance to this type of heavy-handed approach.

In an ideal world, we could simply present authors who refused to use
styles properly with their P45, but sadly, until that glorious day arrives,
"Softly, softly, catchee monkey" may be a pragmatic philosophy to adopt.
