RTF / HTML documents would certainly work, but it looks as though you
want to use some Word-specific features such as templates and fields?
If so then you might want to drive Word's API directly. IBM's
Bridge2Java (also known as "Interface Tool") can access many Windows
COM objects, including Word.

You would need to be running on a Windows machine with Word installed.
