Code:
Dll Name : Aspose.Words.dll
Version : 15.3.00

Create a document with checkbox control.
Using the following code:

Dim license As Aspose.Words.License = New Aspose.Words.License
license.SetLicense("Aspose.Words.lic")
Dim fName As String
fName = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("") & "\Temp\Test.DOC"
Dim doc As Aspose.Words.Document = New Aspose.Words.Document(fName)
Dim builder As Aspose.Words.DocumentBuilder = New Aspose.Words.DocumentBuilder(doc)
builder.Font.Color = Drawing.Color.Black
builder.Write("Create Checkbox control True: ")
builder.InsertCheckBox("ChkName", True, 10)
builder.Write("Create Checkbox control False: ")
builder.InsertCheckBox("ChkFalse", False, 10)
doc.Save(fName)

Document has been created like the below screenshot

When double click on the first checkbox, It shows the default value ‘Not Checked’ eventhough it is checked,

Hi Tim,

Thanks for being patient. It is to update you that the following overload has been added to the DocumentBuilder class:

/// 
/// Inserts a checkbox form field at the current position.
/// 
/// 
/// 
If you specify a name for the form field, then a bookmark is automatically created with the same name.
/// 
/// The name of the form field. Can be an empty string.
/// Default value of the checkbox form field.
/// Current checked status of the checkbox form field.
/// Specifies the size of the checkbox in points. Specify 0 for MS Word
/// to calculate the size of the checkbox automatically.
/// The form field node that was just inserted.
public FormField InsertCheckBox(string name, bool defaultValue, bool checkedValue, int size)

It allows defining default value and checked state of inserting check box separately. The behavior of the following existing overload is changed.

public FormField InsertCheckBox(string name, bool checkedValue, int size)

Now checkedValue value is also assigned as default value of check box. Default value had the ‘false’ value in the previous version. The checkedValue parameter of the overload has been renamed (old name: defaultValue).

The following new public property has been added to the FormField class to provide ability to set check box default value:

/// 
/// Gets or sets the default value of the check box form field.
/// Default value for this property is false.
/// 
/// 
/// Applicable for a check box form field only.
/// 
public bool Default
