  | The problems we've had occur when trying to read text written by an 
  | English version of Word (versions up to and including 6.0, don't know the 
  | minor version number) of both Windows & Mac, on a Japanese version. Text 
  | submitted on a disk for a joint paper with our US subsidiary was garbled 
  | by any Japanese Word version.

He has read the edited by a researcher of Stanford, which means he could
read a Word text written by English version.   It's also worthy to add
another case that he wrote English on Word-J and sent it to China where
nobody could read it.  This is the observation when I said minor release 
number maybe be the difference between them.  I don't know more details
because I'm not a Word user, but LaTeX user.  :-)
