Word can embed the font.
[[Word allows you to embed TrueType fonts in a document so that you can view
and edit the fonts (if licensing rights allow), even if you open the
document on a computer on which the font is not installed]]

[[About preserving a document's original appearance
Microsoft Word provides several options for creating "portable" documents—
that is, documents that always keep their original appearance no matter
which computer or printer you use to view or print them. These options are
especially helpful if you share documents with others, or if you create
documents on one computer, and then view them from another computer or print
them on a different printer.
Embedding TrueType fonts in a document
If you use TrueType fonts when you create or edit a document, you can save
or "embed" them in the document. That way, others can view, modify, and
print the document with its original fonts— even if they haven't installed
the TrueType fonts on their computers.
Note that TrueType font vendors determine the licensing rights for embedding
fonts. For example, some fonts can't be embedded, and other embedded fonts
can be viewed and printed but not modified.
On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Save tab.
Select the Embed TrueType fonts check box.
Save the document. ]]
