In "Direct from MS Word to DSpace via SWORD," Stuart Lewis describes how to get documents into DSpace from Word via SWORD and a custom DSpace ingester.

It also allows you to embed details of the SWORD deposit repository URL (so the users do not need to know what it is) within the template for easy deposit.
