That wasn't quite my point, but it doesn't matter.
I receive .doc and .docx documents. The senders assume I can read them.
What do I do? Complain to them or just deal with it. Fortunately, Debian
makes it relatively easy to take the latter course of action. Why foul
up a relationship?
Now send a .dvi file to a Windows user. You will not hear the last of
it!
The advice you have had is good. Send as PDF; MS might like you to use
xps but its optional.
