There is no sure way they will not change the document. Someone can always re-type it to make changes. However, what I recomend is scan the document or convert it to a pdf and send it to them that way.

Try to convert the file into a .pdf format, it doesn't allow anyone changes it or even copies it. If you've got Adobe Reader, this should be done easily at www.adobe.com
Good luck.
