Creating Ms-Word Document in a Linux environment is possible,with the help of build-in package called Libra-office,some of the Linux flavors perhaps dont have Libra-office by default  then you might need install the package(Libra-office) manually,anyhow coming back to your question.

 

suppose if you already have Libra-office package installed,then open the (Libra office Writer).

steps to save Document in Ms-word format.

 

1) open the Libra office writer.

2)create a new file by clicking File New Menu>then Click Text Document .

3)create/type/add text or image with the help of keyboard.

This is how you can save your file in ms-word format.

4)go to file menu >Click on Save or Ctrl+s>window will pop-up,

5)Provide Name ,in the name field which is above/left hand side.(First Document file)

6)pop-up widows contain (All-format Option, Scroll Box)Just above the save button.

7)click on all-format and select the option (Microsoft Word2007/2010/2013/ docx)

or Microsoft Word97/2000/XP/2003

8)then click on save button.the file will save in ms-word format(Depend on your choice).

hope this will solve your query
