IРІР‚в„ўm a tech writing contractor who's mostly used PCs. I also thought it would be configurable-at least the last version of Acrobat I used on the PC was (Acrobat 8). ThatРІР‚в„ўs why I downloaded the trial version of Acrobat Pro DC.

(When I checked on the Microsoft forum, I was basically told I didnРІР‚в„ўt have any other options.) 'Best for electronic distributionРІР‚Сњ made me sign up for a Microsoft service that did the same thing Acrobat did-it kept the internal links, but substituted fonts - only it swapped Helvetica for Futura instead of Arial. It output the fonts just fine, but stripped out all my internal hyperlinks. 'Best for printing' ended up being the same as File > Print. I tried the Word for Mac 'Save AsРІР‚Сњ but that gave me only two options: РІР‚СљBest for electronic distribution.РІР‚Сњ or РІР‚СљBest for printingРІР‚Сњ. I appreciate any help the community can give me. I've just started using the Mac, so maybe I'm missing something obvious. This is important functionality, so we won't purchase Acrobat Pro if it can't do this.

I also don't understand why any font conversion is taking place at all, since Acrobat is supposed to be able to use TrueType fonts.

I read through all the documentation I could find, and it indicates I should be able to prevent font substitution by embedding the Futura typeface, but I can't find how to do that. It's not a relic from an earlier version of the Word file.

When I use Create PDF from File (in Acrobat Pro) to produce the PDF, the PDF keeps the hyperlinks, but converts Futura to Arial!Р”Р‡utura is in my Font Book on the Mac. But it looks like Acrobat can't do what we want either. So now I'm using a trial version of Acrobat Pro DC (2015.020.20042). The 'Best for electronic distribution.' uses a Microsoft service that converts Futura to Helvetica. (The 'Best for Printing' option loses the hyperlinks. PDF, I lose either the hyperlinks or the typefaces depending on which option I chose. If I use File > Print (from Word for Mac) to produce the PDF, the PDF file keeps the original typefaces, but loses the hyperlinks. The documents contain internal hyperlinks (from the Table of Contents and Table of Figures to headings and captions), and they use the Futura (TrueType) typeface for headings, since that's the typeface of our corporate logo. I'm using the latest version of Word for Mac (Version 15.27 Office 365) and I need to create PDF versions of some large documents for distribution.
