I am using Ubuntu and I need to do my project work. When I use libre office for the work purpose it stores in odt format and converting from odt to docx format changes the alignment of words and paragraphs in documentation.

By reading some blogs and watching videos on Youtube I found wine but,I didn't have license for Microsoft office.so is there any other possible way?

You can't use Microsoft Office in any way without a license ... It is payware. You need an windows emulator like wine to run Microsoft .exe files on any Linux.

You can use LibreOffice. It reads and writes MS-Office format files. LibreOffice is free software.
