Export PDF from Word with all fonts embedded











up vote

favorite












I have a Word document which has some texts in OpenType fonts. I want to distribute it in the PDF format that satisfies all the 3 requirements below:




  • Embed uncommon OpenType fonts for global audience

  • Searchable texts

  • Structural document bookmarks (like a tree of headings)


I tried Export > PDF and PDF Options: PDF/A complaint and Bitmap text when fonts may not be embedded but they lost the document structure.
enter image description hereenter image description here
Can I make such a PDF file using Microsoft Word or is there any third-party software that allows me to do so? Or, is there any way to add fonts into an existing PDF document?



I am using the latest Word (Office 365) on Windows 10. I can script in Bash, PowerShell, etc.

          If you have installed Adobe Acrobat and have in Word an "Acrobat" ribbon pane,
          then this might be possible.



          I see that when clicking the Preferences button and then "Advanced settings...",
          in the Fonts section an option called "Embed OpenType fonts" which is off
          by default. Perhaps ticking the option and then OK, and using the Adobe
          button of "Create PDF" will fix your problem:
