But the OP's question is not to create a document that is readable next year or in ten years time or on any commonly used OS. The question is how can he send a Word-document to his readers, when he is using OO.o to create the newsletter. This means his readers are on Windows or Apple machines.

Everytime this question comes up in its many varieties, sending the document as an attachement in MS-format is ignored and not mentioned to the OP. Personally I think that's a serious denial of functionality that's built into OO.o but that doesn't get used if we do not point it out to users where it could be a solution to their question.

Why is it that every time a users asks this question that he is advised
to create a PDF-document from the OO-document. OO is capable of sending
a document in the corresponding MSFT-format. The users can test the
conversion from ODF to (in this case) DOC to see what it does to the
formatting of his text. If it looks the same then he can send it to the
readers. Although diskspace isn't so much an issue anymore, anything
that saves diskspace would be better than creating extra documents that
one never uses again.

In this instance, the OP is publishing a newletter, which means there's
no need for recipients to be able to edit it.  With any word processor
format, there's always the possibility that someone won't be able to
read it.  Adobe readers are available for any OS in common use.
