Whenever possible, you should take the opportunity to use the native odt and not continue the proliferation of m$ formats. In this simple case of a CV, the document can be sent in PDF using the existing function of OO to create PDF files. If a editable version is requested, the recipient will be able to see an odt file if and odf-compliant software is used, such as the latest versions of m$office; there is a comparison of differences between formats.
