I go the opposite way. Google Docs works fine in my web browser, but
if it's a Word doc, I need to hunt down something that can read it.
I've yet to find any browser that can't handle a GDocs "publish" page,
but I have plenty of computers that don't have any
{Open|Libre|Liber|Libra|whatever the next generation is}-Office
installed.

Best is to put the information into your email/post. Next best is to
have a link to the information. Definitely worst is to force people to
download your file and try to read it.
