Thanks for all the suggestions. For now, the pdf solution works out the

from a practical standpoint although he appreciates that it's mostly a
philosophical issue for me (not wanting to use MS software).



If that's all it was, what's wrong with using OpenOffice and saving as DOC. The current version seems to handle all but the most complex Word formatting without too much ugliness (especially if you tune your compatibility options and use standard fonts).
