To see the list of options, on the Scribus menu bar, use Help -> Scribus
Manual, and then in the manual, open the Contents tab and navigate to For
Developers -> Scripter API -> PDF Export.
PDFFile has a fontEmbedding property that you can set to 1 to request
conversion to vectors.
Can you try adding a line pdf.fontEmbedding = 1
