Why would you do that? Simply export to PDF directly in OOo and send that
file to the recipient.

It sounds as if your email receivers do have OpenOffice.  You can FILE
->  SAVE AS and choose M$oft Word (.doc).  Then your email receivers will
probably be able to open your document.  Try it, and then get back to us
with the results.
Or, assuming you have Windows, get yourself a PDF converter such as
the free doPDF at  http://www.dopdf.com/

doPDF installs itself as a virtual PDF printer driver so after a
successful installation will appear in your Printers and Faxes list
and also in the list of All Programs. Using doPDF you can convert to
PDF in two ways:

   1. Print to PDF via the virtual printer driver doPDF. You would do
this exactly as you print to a regular printer, just the result will
be a PDF file, not a printed piece of paper.
   2. Using the doPDF Startup window. doPDF has an executable file
(accessible from the start program group) that you can run in order to
start a conversion wizard.

Then send them the .pdf as an email attachment.
