These viruses show a blank docx file in macro-disabled mode with only one image, which says "Enable macros to view secure invoice" and shows a picture guide on how to enable macros. Some of them have better instructions than the user guides I write for my users.

Still, some user intervention is required. Assuming you found a vulnerability in Office, it'd be preferable to have a vector where the user just had to open the file.
