Why? The Reveal (not Review) Formatting and Styles and Formatting task panes
offer considerable useful information. Are you ashamed of what they might reveal? -- Suzanne S.

Management wants to keep a consistency across documents based on this
template. They have specified a font that the users will use. The requirements for this template is not to change font, font size, spacing, etc. I already protected the styles, but was wondering if there's a better way of doing it, such as hiding all the dialogs and panes that can trigger these changes.

The Reveal Formatting task pane just shows what formatting is applied; there
is no way to change the formatting using that task pane. The Styles and Formatting task pane can be set to display only the approved styles; if the document is protected for formatting, users will be able to use only those styles, which is what is wanted, right? -- Suzanne S.

Correction on my part. The situation is more complicated than what I
explained. Management wants to prevent users from changing most formatting of the styles (i.e., font color, paragraph spacing, indent). However, a user is allowed to bold, italicize, and/or underline. I realized that if I protect the styles, then bold, italicize, etc. will also be disallowed. So, instead of protecting the styles, I want to prevent certain dialogs (font, parargraph, etc.) from showing up. I already edited and locked down the Menu Bar as well as other Toolbars that can display these dialogs or allow these changes. However, I also need to disallow the Reveal Formatting Pane from show up. That pane has links to the Font and other dialogs. Is there a better approach to this? I want to protect the styles, but users need to bold, for example. "Suzanne S.

If management wants to allow bold, italics, and underline, then include the
Strong and Emphasis character styles among those allowed, and create an Underline character style and allow it, too. -- Suzanne S.

I found another way I can do this. Protect the styles, and add the
WordCommands in my module (i.e., Bold, Italic, Underline, etc.). "Suzanne S.

It would be much easier to include the character styles, assigned to the
same keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+B, Ctrl+I, Ctrl+U); I believe this is the way it is conventionally done. -- Suzanne S.
