Same experience here. Most people seem to adopt an expression akin to
a lavatory[0] when I tell them about document formats preferable to M$
proprietary ones. They simply (d|w)on't get it.
I, in common with other here, have also had things rejected because
they weren't in .doc format. This, despite the inherent insecurity
of .docs, anyway (macros for example).
[0] That is to say; vacant.
