Yes, overkill for reading a simple document, but my reply was also
addressing the OP's statement of "and can not afford the cost of a MS

So with LibreOffice, he gets his "office" at no cost.

The OP uses WordPerfect

Wait. You are the OP. You didn't mention anything about WordPerfecct in
your initial post. Won't WordPerfect open and read Microsoft's ".doc"
files? (It's been centuries since I used WP, but seem to remember that it
did .doc files same as Word.)

It will open most of the MS documents. However recently I have ran
across a series of MS documents that will not open in WordPerfect or any
of the MS viewers that I have.
