Microsoft Word Embedded Font

I've tried searching for a similar answer from this NG, but I couldn't
find one.

I am currently doing a project for school. Basically I'm trying to
rasterize to ascii glyphs taken from a truetype font file. I've been
doing some tests using Word documents and everything was going well
until I tried printing a word document sent by my friend to me having
embedded fonts.

I don't have the font in my machine, so I wouldn't know where to get
the font metrics when printing a microsoft word document. I also
encountered this for Adobe acrobat, but I was able to get the
information from the %windir%/TMP folder.

Any information on where Microsoft Word places a temporary font file,
if ever it does, is highly appreciated. Thank You.
