I use it every month this way to produce a newsletter using MS Word and Adobe Acrobat. Seriously, I can't imagine a single valid reason for firing up a virtual machine to use either Word or Acrobat.
Install LibreOffice, import one old newsletter and do the newsletters with LO. It will even render the letter to PDF for you. You can even save them in Word format if you are convinced you can never drag yourself away from Word. I have to second that - in my company, we've been MS-Office-free for nearly ten years. Initially it must have been with openoffice 1.x. It was very much a conscious decision and we've never looked back.
A question re this: when exporting a document written using LO - in my case I want to export a spreadsheet (or even a text document) - to be read and worked on a Windows system, which export format would one use?

Export to the version of Microsoft Office you co-worker will be using. (Or one version older). LO offers several. You simply select Word 2012, or whatever. -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail.
