It does not. Not even a little. Nor does .NET in general, or WPF. You can only 'support' Word by using the Microsoft libraries that allow your code to work with Word, if it is installed on the client machine. As Silverlight is sandboxed, I doubt it will ever be possible for Silverlight to check and work with Word on a client machine. Your best bet would be to have Word on your server, send it the files, and then use Word to convert to RTF for viewing.
