We're trying to create Word templates based on our corporate identity but we need to prevent changes to the images (size, position, etc.) in the header and footer areas of the documents. Is there a way to do that while allowing users to create their text documents with relative freedom?

You can do this using the Restrict Editing button on the Developer tab. The Developer tab isn't visible by default--if you don't see it, the option to display it is under File | Options | Customize Ribbon (Microsoft Support article with steps).
