Default Best way to put existing documents into new template (Word 2007)?

With Word 2007, what is the best way to have users put their existing
documents into my new template?

They're used to moving text from one document to another by doing "Insert
Text From File." However, this will bring in styles from the original
document, and not update them to the template's styles.

I know I can control it on my own computer by either pasting the text as
Unformatted and then applying Styles, or changing the Word Option to Match
Destination Formatting. Is there an easier way to tell my users to do it?

Thank you. (by the way, please don't send me the shaunakelly.com links; I've
read them and they didn't address this questions, thx)
