What To Do On a Mac When Someone Sends You a Microsoft Word File

What do you do if someone sends you a Microsoft Word document, but you don't use Word on your Mac? You've got several options for viewing these documents, copying text from them, and even editing and saving in Word format without needing to buy anything.

    Or you can download and use LibreOffice for free which is a complete Microsoft Office replacement. It works great on a Mac.

    Great overview of the options. It might be helpful to mention that Preview can’t open Word docs, something that many people may experience and find annoying.
