"ZapfDingbats" is one of the base 14 fonts in PDF so a font file isn't
necessary to produce a PDF. You'll find the Unicode code points to use

You can also take a look at examples/fo/basic/fonts.fo which
demonstrates the full set of ZapfDingbats characters.

If you still want the original ZapfDingbats font, you can buy it from
Adobe. But that shouldn't be necessary.
