You cannot embed an Adobe OpenType font in a document in an Office program
SYMPTOMS
When you try to embed fonts in a document that is in one of the programs that are listed in the "Applies to" section, Adobe OpenType fonts that have the .otf extension are not embedded.
CAUSE
This issue occurs because the programs that are listed in the "Applies to" section do not embed fonts that have the .otf extension. The programs that are listed in the "Applies to" section only embed fonts that have the .ttf extension.
WORKAROUND
To work around this issue, use only fonts that have the .ttf extension in documents in which you intend to embed the fonts.
MORE INFORMATION
The Adobe OpenType format is an extension of the TrueType SFNT format that supports Adobe PostScript font data and new typographic features. Adobe OpenType fonts that contain PostScript data have an .otf extension. However, TrueType-based OpenType fonts have a .ttf extension.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
