Don't argue, that will not earn you any points. Provide an HTML
version of the CV on a website and include a suggestion to open it in
Word and save it as a Word document, if the reader absoutely has
to. Include a warning that the result may not be as smooth as the
original.
I've had this suggestion on my website for years, I know some people
followed it.
