Nathan,

I will try velocity, if it is not tied to HTML i may work. But i'm not sure if 
msword special
characters could confuse the parser... i'll test.

If velocity is not tied to HTML, it should work, may be at least with the 
simpler RTF.

POI is an alternative i've been evaluating, i was looking for something simple: 
"replace tokens with
runtime information" ...i posted to know if there is some specific experience 
using velocity for this.

Thank you
Hans
