Wing Dings changed when exported to PDF

I have a report that requires checkboxes.  I used the wingdings font to accomplish this but I need to have the print format to be pdf.  When the file is exported the boxes become stars and the checkboxes become rectangles.  Which font should I use or if there is some code that I need to add to have the report appear as designed.  Thanks

    Don't use wingdings. Set borders on a textbox with the right padding (left and right = 0) and font size (together with Center Align). Then fill it with a X to make it checked.
