Interesting. I was just corresponding this morning with a new Ubuntu user who was telling me that she couldn't find the option to save in *.doc format in LibreOffice. I wonder if Ubuntu's version is behind Fedora and doesn't have that capability, or if she just couldn't find where to do it? (I don't know her well, but I get the distinct impression her computer skills are not highly developed.) I suggested to her she might check into installing OpenOffice.org, but perhaps that isn't necessary.
