I much prefer to work in a text based world. When I write I draft in vi and then have some scripts that have the formatting turned into something word can deal with for sharing.

So you have to share tables through excel that come from org mode? If so, how do you manage that?

Orgmode can convert tables to csv. http://orgmode.org/manual/Translator-functions.html

If I have to deal with others I just use excel directly though. Orgmode is for me and my command line.
