  1. PS fonts already don't have any spaces in their names by default. Not sure why, maybe because they're older and spaces in names was a concern back when they were new, but in any case, PS font names don't have spaces in them by default. For example, Avril Serif - Regular.ttf in PS would already be AvrilSerif-Regular.otf.
  2. You can't embed PS fonts in a Word document. You can only embed TT fonts (which includes OpenType fonts with TrueType Outlines).

For those reasons, I would be surprised if the PS section has any bearing on this. But I'll happily embrace my being completely wrong if it provides a solution to this problem. :-)
When I look at a font, under PS names, the Fontname does not have spaces but the Family Name does as does the Name for Humans. The family name is what seems to be important under PS Names. For TTF Names, I remove the spaces from the Family and Fullname entries.

These choices date back to when the version of RMSDK used by Kobo sucked at introspecting fonts.
