Personal MS Word anecdote: Word 2016 can successfully open and render my final year University project report, compiled in 1996 using Word 6.0. It contains a bunch of embedded images, tables and moderately complex diagrams drawn using Visio 2.0.

The report is saved across six .doc files, due to the size limitation of the 3.5" floppy disks we were using back then.
