The Word Styles section of Post-Processing Cleanup covers two types of cleanup:

Convert User-Defined Character Styles to Face Markup
Remove Unused Word Styles

When Convert User-Defined Character Styles to Face Markup is checked, this option converts theapplication of user-defined character styles to plain face markup.

This cleanup is helpful to prepare the document for desktop publishing where it is not desired to keep character styles.

This function can also be used in conjunction with “Remove Text Shading” and “Remove eXtyles Tags” to cleanup a reference list after eXtyles processing.

This function should not be used if the file is to be exported to XML.

Tip: It’s recommended you check this setting if your organization uses a Word-PDF-Workflow.

When Remove Unused Word Styles is checked, this option removes any Word paragraph and character styles that are not in use in the document.

This feature is mostly an aid to certain tools used with Quark XPress to index content.
