Karen a pdf should be readable on almosy any computer with the free adobe reader. If you need to save it as a Mircosoft Word Document, then select .doc or .docx. from the pulldown file type box.
I have not used Microsoft Office since 1999, so I'm not sure about Win 7 version of office. It may also support .xml besides the two mentioned above. Hope this helps.
