Most of the focus has been on Word documents. See if these get you anywhere; you’ll have to follow the trail.

The Payne Consulting Group advertises a solution to automate the removal of metadata: a product called Metadata Assistant. I haven’t personally used it. To get more information, contact Metadata@PayneConsulting.com or call Shirley Gorman at (888) GO-PAYNE (reported in Microsoft Office Solutions magazine).
