Embedding fonts in Word 2016

mpw_amherst · November 1, 2015 9:59AM

I want to embed two fonts I use and have installed on my system in Word files so that they appear as I've created them when I send elsewhere. However, while I've found instructions online for how to do this on Windows in Word 2013 I can't find anything for Word 2016 and following a similar route as the Windows variant gets me nowhere. I assume there must be a way to do this. Anyone got any pointers?

I don't know how to do it with Word files but I have a suggestion for an alternative solution. If you want a document to appear the same as you've created them when you send it elsewhere then you should be using PDFs instead. You mention having Word 2016 so that version can save documents as PDFs. Just make sure you select the ISO 19005-1 compliant (PDF/A) option when saving.
