uncheck "Rely on system fonts; do not use documents fonts"

and see if that makes a difference.

For more information about creating PDF from MS office please check the help page - https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/how-to/create-pdf-files-word-excel-website.html

 

Also please check the correct answer marked in the similar discussion https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat/adobe-prints-to-notepad-error-message/m-p/8802534 and see if that helps.
