There could be some minor cosmetic differences at the receiving
end, but probably nothing major as long as the document doesn't
contain complex formatting. And even if you had Word, it's
likely that a Word document will look a bit different on someone
else's computer than it does on yours (see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/TextReflow.htm and
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/shar...matChange.html
for more info on that).
