Word Template Applying Unwanted Formatting on Ballot/Checkbox (? ?) Unicode Characters

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi All,

I have several Two Options type fields whose label values are the Unicode characters "?" and "?" for "No" and "Yes" respectively, as shown in the screenshot below:

A Word Template is set to take the values of this field as "Plain Text" controls in Word, but, as you will see from the following screenshot, Word decides to apply some sort of formatting to only the ticked checkbox.

I actually like the look of the blue check-boxes but I can't get the checked and unchecked boxes to match in either type of format. You can see clearly from the Style Inspector that it is using two different fonts, even though in the actual template the font used is the same. I even cleared all formats manually and this still happens.

Any ideas how to fix this?

    Ok, so after applying the font "Segoe UI Symbol" to those fields in the Template and re-uploading, all check-boxes appear as the black and white variant.

    However, I still think the blue one looks better but I can't find a way to get it to appear for the unchecked boxes.
