[duxuser] Word template with UEB

I am very comfortable using the Word Bana template in Word to create my braille 
documents. Documents created using this template must be imported with the 
English American  Textbook de Bana template. I have created a matching template 
so I can create literary braille through this same method by modifying the 
textbook Bana template for the different page number formats, etc. 

But I'm wondering how I might create a new Word template based on the existing 
template, and/or map it to a new Duxbury template in order to create English 
UEB braille. I want to retain the Bana textbook layout, but be able to 
translate the braille with UEB rules. Can I associate a different braille table 
with a new DBT template? In other words, base a new template on English 
American Textbook de Bana but use the UEB translation? Or maybe go from the 
other angle and create a new template based on English UEB and remap the Word 
Bana template styles? 

Ideas welcome please.
