As long as you save them as .doc instead of .odt your files can be opened by MS Office users. You can open MS Office files.

Personally I hate Java programs so I don't use it >.>; All I ever really use is Word anyway. Use Adobe Illustrator to make up presentation files as my profs have threatened to bring untold pain to us if we use PowerPoint =(
