Strange usage/dangling modifiers?

Hello,

I have a sentence as follows:
This document was created by a team of authors using a popular word processor.

Is there anything confusing in the usage of the word 'using' and what it refers to (document or team of authors, i.e. patient or agent).

No. A document can't use a word processor, so all is clear.
