Not clear if you mean import or export, but generally yes. You can manage to use
some feature which doesn't export cleanly, but in general it works well.
When I was writing for Sysadmin and other magazines regularly I got no
complaints, and I assume that the non-computer ones are using Word. There are
several variants, I used Word97 for stuff.
I assume he is asking about .docx format - i have had mixed results -
sometimes it works sometimes the import just gives an error. I have not
tried to export to .docx only .doc ... at this point I'd give docx
support a 5/10.
