#GUMmyStuff
NO, Word, one does not hyphenate compound adjectives formed with adverbs ending in -ly.
It's "fully formed." NO hyphen.
(Note that "family-style," however, is hyphenated because "family" isn't an adverb. Neither is "scholarly," as in "scholarly-looking.")
This guidance is true for all major style guides. That's a good thing, innit.
