Can you convert fonts to outline in Pages?

In Pages 5.6.1, I'm wondering if fonts can be converted to outline? Some people I send Pages docs to are having issues with the embedded fonts defaulting to something else. In many cases they have the same fonts used in the document installed in their system. I'm thinking that converting the font to outline might be a quick work-around.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11.3)

You can't embed fonts in Pages dcos. Are you sending docs to other mac users but using fonts that only you have installed?

In general if your recipient does not have the fonts you are using, the only fix is to send them .pdf format instead of .pages or .doc.
