Something I've always kept in mind is that word processors are
generally an application you use on *your* computer to edit something
that you were going to print on *your* printer.

If you tried to give someone else your document, the page layout suited
your printer, which mayn't suit theirs.  Likewise, regarding fonts and
images.  They mightn't have your fonts, but documents usually do embed
images in their file.  Though what most people think looks like a good-
enough image on their screen, is actually a lousy low-resolution
picture to give to a print house.
