Our company produces editable manuals in word format. The problem we have ran into is that when a client opens the manual in Word, it reformats the document for their specific printer. This throws off the document format. We are trying to find a solution that will allow us to produce the manuals, allow the clients to edit them yet maintain the original format. Any ideas or suggestions?

Turn off the "use printer metrics for layout" on the Tools>Options Compatiblity tab

Embed fonts or use standard ones.

Your best bet is probably an Acrobat file.
Here are some suggestions from MS Word MVP FAQ Site:
