Hide cursor in Word file

[Cosmo]

Is it possible to hide the cursor in a protected word document? I have a document which is essentially a tiff file placed with a hyperlink added over it (the document would be much better served as a PDF, but the client must have it in Word). The document has no editable text, and is not meant to be edited in any way, but the cursor shows when the user opens the document, and I would like to hide/disable it if possible.
