Print as PDF, then screenshot the opened PDF, and OCR it back into word before printing to PDF one last time.

You forgot printing it on paper and scanning it back to pdf

But don't forget to do a bad crop.

And jpeg it to death.

My school did things like that when sending the updated schedule. (Make fixes in the schedule, print it, take photo of the printed schedule, send it by email)

Unfortunately still can't stop someone from importing the PDF into Word anyway 🫠

We don't interact with those people

Unfortunately ceasing interaction with those people ceases the interaction of their money and your bank account 😔

I had a rule about companies I applied to. I sent them my resume as a PDF and Word 2003 document. If they still couldn’t read it, I didn’t want to work there anymore.

Would a PDF not be sufficient on it's open to check that?

It could be worse, they could import it into excel.
