Thanks Monica for the CudSpan tools reference.  Actually, for this type of a job, especially if you're importing lots of Word files from the same Word template, then TemplateMapper could be the right tool.  It might be overkill for you, but the idea is that you make a map of the formats you have and the formats you want, and it then changes them all.  You can set up projects for a repeatable process.  I have used it for conversions of books from Word to Maker.

iG5 handles TemplateMapper sales and initial support -- www.ig5authoringtools.com.  If you're interested, you can see more details at that location (http://ig5authoringtools.com/plugin-directory/single-sourcing/templatemapper/).
