Default Batch conversion of font attributes in multiple DOC files

A response to this question has been provided to your identical post in the
programming newsgroup. Please do not post the same question separately to
multiple newsgroups. Instead, place the newsgroup names of all of the
newsgroups that you think might be appropriate into the header of the one
message. If you do that, an answer in one of those newsgroups will
automatically appear in all of them and it will:

1. Make it easier for you to find the response - you only have to look in
one place

2. Eliminate the possibility of a person answering a question in one
newsgroup that has already be answered in another.

Does anyone have recommendations for how to batch convert existing DOC
files that have font attributes that I want to see changed? For instance,
let's say I have 30 DOC files in a folder, and I want to change the font
face "Arial" with "Times Roman" in ALL of the DOCs. Is there a tool that
will do the conversion in a batch process as opposed to having to open
each DOC file and perform alot of editing within the DOC? Likewise, the
tool would have to change the font height, from let's say wherever a font
12 is found to font size 10.
