If you want documents that render the same, then use PDF/A with embedded
fonts.

Regarding applications, there is one brand of legacy application that is
still rather persistent despite its inability even to render it's own
document format correctly across versions or even different machines.
ODF is here and established.  For being the first universal office
format, it has also had to solve a lot of other problems along the way.
 OOo uses it and is consistent.

ODF nonetheless does well and the more it is used, the more these
irregularities get hammered out.

It does more than well enough for the original task, which was that of
publishing episodes in a travelogue.
