If all you need is to print it, try saving it off as a .pdf file before you send it to her. Most people can view those and print those and they will usually maintain the format. Try file, print, scroll down to pdf to save as a .pdf. Then attach it to an e-mail and send it to her. Also if you still wish to try to have it open with word, after she downloads it, find the file in her list of files and right click on it. There is an an option there that says "open with" and then you have choices of how to open the file. If at first it doesn't give you a choice for Word, you should be able to click on "more" and it should be listed. I'm also thinking that if it truly is a word perfect document I'm not sure you can open that with Microsoft Word 11 or any form of Microsoft Word so a pdf may be the way to go. Hope this works for you.
