Hide PlantUML doesn't hide code from users without PlantUML installed in WORD #26

As clearly described in the presentation of this solution, the current behaviour only hides PlantUML code for users with PlantUML installed.

Your implementation seems to rely on setting the PlantUML style to font effects = hidden. If this is the case then I don't see why it becomes "un-hidden" to users without PlantUML installed. Is this a deliberate feature or the result of something strange with WORD?

I would prefer the opposite default behaviour: hidden is hidden for both PlantUML installed users and other WORD users. This way released documents would not need to have PlantUML code being deleted and hence the need to maintain an "editable" and "released" version.

This is particularly important when WORD is used as the file format in standards making organisations and the file contains figures generated using PlantUML. In this case it is reasonable that any reader may propose changes to the standard but this is only possible if they have access to the "editable" version which may not be publicly available.
