SaveToPDF CheckBox Issue with Windows Server 2003

Aspose.Words Product Family

Hi,
I’m using version 6.1.0.0 of aspose.words. Using the SaveToPDF() method to generate a PDF document from a word document. Included in the word document are checkboxes which have been inserted by the DocumentBuilder.InsertCheckbox() method. Running locally on my Windows XP machine this works fine however when deployed to a Windows Server 2003 environment the word document generates correctly with check boxes but the check boxes in the PDF document aren’t rendered correctly. I attach copies of the generated word and PDF document.
Do you have any idea as to why this occurs? Can this be fixed or do you have any suggested work around?
Thanks in advance

Thanks for your request. Please try to install Wingdings2 font on the server (see attachment). This should fix the problem. Please let me know in case of any issues:
