Yes it does, but it does some strange things with the styles in the 6 page document on which I tested your script. The style changes to "Title" throughout and the font is listed as "Times New Roman" in the font menu but it is still showing as Benguiat Gothic on screen.
I don't think MS Word can properly recognise style of text to plain.
Kind regards

In AppleScript, you could try something like this:
