RE: checkbox in pdf

[Torsten Erler]

Hi

AFAIK neither Helvetica nor the other fonts youv'e tried out, contain this
glyph so U've to use a font which has this character at this address.
Unfortunality I cant help you which font has it....

but I think another solution would be to create a simple graphic (box.gif)
which can be scaled to your requested font size and use it with
<fo:external-graphic> tag.

hope it helps
