William,

I agree. It's a bit mystifying to me as well why my first reader doesn't interact with the PDF.

In any case, I think there ARE problems with the Turabian format that need to be resolved. Hopefully, embedding the fonts in Word will solve some of the problems.

Sincerely,

Chris

Chris,

I can't help with your primary question, but...

Why on earth?  Stephen is absolutely correct about the problems about
the issues involved in submitting a document in a non-standard format
such as (any version of) Word.  *Anyone* should be able to read a PDF
document, and see the same result.  If your "first reader" is not
actually modifying the document, the requirement that it should be in
Word format is absurd.
