Dear Adobe!

Please add "Convert fonts to outlines" function in Export/PDF/Advanced dialog box in InDesign.

Thank you!

For Gods sake: why???
You would never, never need it. And in that very, very rare case you would, you can do so in Acrobat already or (but again: very, very bad!) do it in InDesign with a flattener pre-set in InDesign at Export to PDF.

Note: you must make a firm case for why this feature is needed. AFAIC, it's not, so don't expect a lot of support for it.

Text outlining is only required for cutting or very old RIPs - not in a normal circumstances.

Thank you, but I know the Acrobat Pro Preflight function (and us it).

I think it better and simplier in workflow in the InDesign as function.
