Interpreting it is hard. There's a library by the Apache group (Jakarta project) which offers partial capabilities to read and write Word documents http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/index.html but if that is not enough you're pretty much on your own (I think they'd be happy to accept contributions towards completing their work).

hmmm. I think when you name your fields you want to fill like this "<[(myfield1)]>" etc you have a great chance to fill your document without any word interpreter. Only stupid string-replacement. Try it.
Its interessting wether it works for me, too.
Let me know.
