Unfortunately, the mailing list strips attachments before distributing the message. It may be best to report an issue at https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/ and attach the file there, though it is quite atypical to edit man pages in Word. The authoritative source version is plain text using the mdoc markup language for formatting, so text editors (as opposed to word processors) are more common. Furthermore, the make manual lives in the contributed tree (https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/contrib/bmake/make.1?view=markup), for which it is frequently best to try to make changes in the upstream location first, and only make FreeBSD-local patches if that is unsuccessful. -Ben
