Just substitute your user name for ComputerName and UBF8T346G9.Office for "******(ID# assigned during install).Office", then insert User Content before Startup/Word. So the complete path will be Users/YourUserName/Library/Group Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/User Content/Startup/Word, though apparently some installations append .localized to some folder names.

    The first 2 links are for the full edition of Acrobat, while the last 2 are for Reader. The Continuous version is for monthly subscribers while the Classic file is for users who bought or downloaded a standalone (retail) version.
