Shouldn't be too complex.  You can probably just make the template file in 
OpenOffice, and run openoffice from your website to generate the output.  
Have a read at the openoffice docs, ask on the openoffice mailing lists if 
you're stuck, and if you're really stuck, look for a pre-existing solution on 
freshmeat, or hire a web developer to do it for you.  You might also want to 
look at the batch facilities of other Free word processors.  KWord is 
probably very capable of this, for instance.
