Hey @Awad ,

What Power Automate Converter are you using? Does your Word Document have custom font? 

[Awad]

@CFernandes ,

I am using the Metric Light, Metric Medium, Metric Bold Fonts. I hope these are the default fonts that comes with the Word Document

Hi @Awad I am afraid the fonts(Metric Light, Metric Medium, Metric Bold Fonts) are not default Fonts available in word, you can find the list below.

Changing to a Font available in Word Application should resolve you problem.

@CFernandes , thanks for your response but the manual conversion from word to pdf works and so the end users expect the Microsoft flows to work the same way.  If this is a limitation than Microsoft must improve its  'Convert to PDF' Action in flows

@Awad Which Converter are you using can you please share the screenshot?

@CFernandes 

I am creating a word Doc (Font Exists), Converting to PDF and creating pdf file in OneDrive (Font Changed). 

At the moment, user generated pdf using the manual save as pdf option

@Awad I see you already had a look at the thread https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/I-Found-A-Bug/OneDrive-convert-to-PDF-is-losing-embedded-Fonts/t... 

and I find no solution. 

Please vote for the idea https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Power-Automate-Ideas/Convert-Words-to-PDF-Missing-Fonts/idi-p/34...

If fonts are important to you then you may want to contact third party http://www.muhimbi-online.com/Home I am sure they will accommodate your request.
