Google Drive is always making strides to work better with Microsoft Office. The ability to easily convert Office Files into Google format has been around for awhile now.

With their newest release, Google is allowing you to save Office Files into Google Drive straight from Microsoft Office’s interface.

Cross platform sharing is completely pain free, just save to Drive and share like you ordinarily would.
