Why don't you temporarily save it as a Word doc to your host filesystem, and
then use the standard html file-download component in your code to make it
available to your users?

Why do you need to display it in Word format ?
If you send it as text/plain, they can easily
copy/paste it into Word. Word can read/write text
format.
