How to create jpg graphic files from Japanese & Korean font documents?

I have several Microsoft Word documents with Japanese and Korean fonts.
I can read these documents easily in my computers because I have these
fonts.
I like to create jpg graphic files so that I can easily send to my readers
whose computers do not have these foreign character fonts.

Thank you for your help.

Print the document out and then scan it to a jpg file.

My immediate thought is that it would be easier to publish to PDF so
that the distributed documents would display the characters. If you
don't have this capability, see www.cutepdf.com

Less appealing solutions would be to:
Save the document with the Embed Fonts option enabled.
or
Distribute the necessary fonts with your documents.
or
Publish to HTML and have your readers install the Microsoft Japanese
and Korean language support packages for Internet Explorer.
 
That is what we are doing now. Or, do "print-screen" and paste on Paint.
Its very time consuming. Unable to do multi-page document at once.
The font is not solid black and fuzzy. The text looks poor.
 
Thank you.

Too many readers complain and object of font loading.
That is why we are sending jpg graphic file.

Yes, I like to embed the Japanese & Koran fonts to create pdf file first,
then used Acrobat to create the jpg graphic file. So far, I am unable to
embed any fonts (in my computer) correctly using Acrobat 5. Can you tell me
what I did wrong?

Thank you.
 
Try using Snagit from www.techsmith.com

Two options!
1. Use PDF output for which you'll need a PDF writer, such as Adobe Acrobat
or one of its cheaper clones.
2. Use a screen capture driver - SnagIt will produce multi-paged files in
any graphics format.
There are links to both options on the favourites page of my web site.

I don't know Acrobat well and I don't currently have it available to
me. But wouldn't you use Acrobat to create a PDF, not a JPG? Nearly
everyone has Acrobat Reader already, and those that don't can download
it rather painlessly.

Creating images from screen captures will naturally be low resolution,
and JPG is not suitable for text. Always use GIF or TIF for text. GIF
is more compatible with web browsers, but it is limited to gray-scale
or 256-color images, which may cause problems with text if your
graphics program applies dithering to your image.

However, if you mean you made a PDF file that did not handle the font
correctly, I'm not sure where the problem is. I did a test using
CutePDF (print to PDF, open the file on a PC that does not have one of
the fonts used in the document) and the font appeared correctly, so
give it a try. It's free.

And slightly awesome. My thanks to all those who pointed me in the direction
of that wonderful and useful program!
 
I used PDFwriter to create pdf file. Then with my Adobe Acrobat,
I tried to create a jpg file. But I am unable to embed the Japanese & Korean
fonts inside the document. What do I have to do to make sure the fonts are
embedded? Thank you.
 
Can you embed the fonts? This is a save option but won't work with fonts
that block it. (They block it because of copyright restrictions.)

I am using Adobe Acrobat 5.0 and am unable to embed any font in my document
when I create the pdf file. Where is the save option? Where is the font
option?

In Word, go to Tools > Options > Save tab > check Embed TrueType
fonts. Then, if you save and distribute the Word document, presumably
the fonts in use will go with it.

This option can increase the file size greatly.
