That only hides the bookmarks on your system. It doesn't affect their presence in the document or whether others might see them. When using formfields this way, ideally you'd omit their internal bookmark names except for the few you want to use for cross-referencing. If that still leaves too many unwanted bookmarks, you could delete them. To manage the lot in one go you might use a macro like:
Code:
Sub Normalise()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
With ActiveDocument
  If .ProtectionType <> wdNoProtection Then
    .Unprotect Password:=""
  End If
  .Fields.Unlink
  While .Bookmarks.Count > 0
    .Bookmarks(1).Delete
  Wend
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
