dumb question - but how best to edit/update word files on linux/ubuntu?

The only issue with linux I am wondering about is sharing my CV where most companies need a word file.

For dev work/play time - 100% linux

Maybe it's regional, but I've never been asked for a Word file resume.

I've never had somebody turn down a PDF. And all of the "Upload you resume" online applications I've seen also support PDF. A lot of them lately will even correctly parse out the info and auto-fill forms with it, but some of them mangle it.
