Default Remove image paths from Word to PDF convertion

Hi,

I have just converted an MS Word 2013 doc into PDF via the MS Word Export utility. This worked great, however, when I hover over any of the images that are part of the newly converted PDF document, a yellow box appears showing a path to the location from where the image originated on my hard drive. I went back to the Word doc and removed all Metadata, then exported it to PDF once again, but again, the path still shows when you hover over an image. This is not restricted to the PC I used to create the doc. When I transfer the PDF file to another PC, the path still shows.

Does anyone know how to prevent this?


Many thanks
