Indeed, this is a valid use case
Although for something as short as a resume, I'd personally just redo the template once in OpenOffice, save it in doc 97, and be relatively happy with it forever. No need to keep broken documents around.

I recently had occasion to update my CV, because of an upcoming internal vacancy. I worked on it at work (admittedly using Office 2003 on Windows XP) and at home using LibreOffice 3.3.2 running under Kubuntu Natty Narwhal.
It was rendered on-screen and printed exactly the same in either program.
