Phil
I have roughly the opposite question. On my current ePub formatting job, I needed "checkboxes" on a set of pages. (I am using Calibre.)I duly incorporated Wingding.ttf in the Fonts, including checking that it was duly added to the content.opf. The default reader for Calibre reads everything wonderfully, as does Adobe's Acrobat Reader. However, when I tried the Nook reader, the checkboxes do NOT show, only an indication of an unrecognized character. Any ideas what I missed or how to fix this?

I appreciate any help or insights anyone may have. Thank you.
