If one wants to send working word document to Mac or PC do the following:
first choose what ever email client you desire.
My preference is either SeaMonkey (Mozilla all in one) or Thunderbird.
I will give directions based on those (since directions are identical).
Entourage is so convoluted it give me a headache just to open it up. :-)
create your document.
save
quit word.
now while in find locate the created document and if you use either StuffIt, stuffit Deluxe, or even from finder locate create .zip.
In finder go to file menu > create archive, after selecting the desired file.
It will now change format to file with .zip extension example Bicycle_parts.doc after archive is created will show a new file called Bicycle_parts.zip.
Now open either thunderbird or SeaMonkey and click on compose. (Make sure in SeaMonkey you go window menu and chose Mail & Newsgroups is selected.)
create you message and click on attach button. Now locate the zip file created. Select click okay or Yes.
press send and you message will get there.
ON Mac's all the have to do is double click on the the zip file and decompresses. On PC they will have to use some form of unzip Winzip or PKUnzip to open the file.
IF you know the person the other end uses a Mac and owns Stuffit Deluxe, Stuffit, Or Stuffit Expander; the ideal for mat is .sitx it compress the to 1/2 the size of .zip file. unlike PkWare's Zip application that has several levels of compression neither winzip nor the zip archive engine built into OSX does nothing more than change the encoding and in some cases actually increases the file size.
I wish PKWare would have created a PKZIP and PKunZip for Mac. That was actually the most compressed method of file compression ever created.

The "process" is dependent upon what email software you're using, what
version of Word & whether you want to send it as an attachment or as HTML
content. Post a new message including the information & I'm sure someone
will be willing to help you out.
