PDFWriter is a non-PostScript tool and mercifully, Adobe has dropped it.
Your best PDF will come from distilling a PostScript file made with the
Adobe PDF printer instance.


how do I achieve this?


Do you have real Acrobat, or, a competitive product?


real Acrobat



Acrobat installs a printer called Adobe PDF and an application called
Distiller. Change to that printer and "print to file", then distill that
resulting file. Word will save a file whose extension is PRT, and Distiller
looks for PS. You can either (a) put quotes around the file name
"myfile.ps"; or (b) let it print myfile.prt, and in Distiller, force it to
open myfile.prt.
