    Libre Office should work in most cases. In the handful that Libre Office can’t you might try installing MS Office through WINE.

    One heads up, even MS Office on Windows has trouble with opening MS Office formats correctly between versions. Seems like every time they release a new version the format changes slightly but dramatically. The actual text is usually fine, but formatting is often borked.

    A third option is to use Office 365. It’s browser based. It’s also a monthly subscription.
