You can also store the file in .pdf format if you install <a href="http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/help/HA100649921033.aspx">this add-on</a> in your Word2007.

I have Microsoft Word 2007, and it works perfectly fine on my computer. However, If I ever email it or transfer it likewise, the document turns into a bunch of symbols. As a side note, the computer that I transfer to has Word 2003. It might have something to do with it, but I'm not sure. Thanks! -Zalgroth
