      For word there’s a web client if you need to have word, but there’s also FOSS alternatives that aren’t word that work just as well.

      For Adobe, I’m not sure. Do you need Adobe, or can an alternative work?

      Microsoft obviously often only supports Windows, though they do have a decent amount of Linux support too, because their developers use Linux frequently. A lot of other large companies don’t support Linux either because they don’t see the incentive, or they have another worse reason, such as helping Microsoft maintain market dominance.

          No other PDF reader/word processor is able to do the same?

          There are plenty of both with pretty much exact same functionality.

          But if you really depend on those for some obscure reason, Wine should help.

      Practically, no. If a Linux user need Adobe for her life, then she needs to use it from a Virtual Machine.
