Default converting ASCII text to Microsoft Word text

I sometimes work on a old Canon word processer that can save files in
US-ASCII. Although I can open the files on a PC, convert, and save in
Word, I need to make the files function as Word Files ( for inserts, even
margins, etc.). How do I convert an ASCII file so that whoever opens it can
use it as a regular Word file?
