Word will save documents as MS-DOS Word format, though some bits don't 
translate; Styles, Outlining, and Tables, for example.

On the Mac connected to the ImageWriter, use the Chooser to select the 
LaserWriter, even though there isn't one attached.  Word adjusts its rulers
and font widths differently depending on the current printer.  The LaserWriter
margins are generally narrower than the corresponding ImageWriter margins, so
I have found it easiest to leave the LaserWriter selected while formatting,
then use the TogglePrinter FKey to switch to the ImageWriter to print a sample.
Since the ImageWriter margins in Word are wider, I don't get funny wordwraps
and unexpected broken lines this way.
