I’m going to have to amplify Clownsinspace2’s suggestion of libreoffice.

It is free and open source. It will output files in any way you want including MS readable formats.

I had the same issue when I moved from Office XP to OpenOffice, then switched to Libre Office. Then I had I job where I had to maintain multiple laptops for uses in our meeting and presentation space. Included on those laptops had to be Office. I tried switching back to Office, and found myself always reaching for Libre instead.
