I’m trying to show the symbol (:heavy_check_mark:) on a PDF. (I’m using VB.Net).

I tried using #$UNICODE(10004) but it didn’t work. can anyone tell me how to get this check symbol to show up?

Is this bug fixed? I’m working for a company who has Aspose license, so for my programmatic PDF updates, I’m using Aspose Nugets (in C# project). Is there a way I can write a check mark on a PDF programmatically?

The syntax #$UNICODE(char_code) is not supported in the Aspose.PDF DOM API. But you can enter any Unicode symbols programmatically using the common C# syntax. Here is an example of generating the document using the Aspose.PDF DOM API:

//Instantiate a Document instance by calling its empty constructor
using (Aspose.Pdf.Document pdf1 = new Aspose.Pdf.Document())
{
    //Create a page in the Pdf object
    Aspose.Pdf.Page sec1 = pdf1.Pages.Add();
    //Create a sample text paragraph
    Aspose.Pdf.Text.TextFragment text1 = new Aspose.Pdf.Text.TextFragment("page $p of $P  \x2713" + " test and \x25a1");

    //Specify the ID for the text paragraph
    text1.Id = "page1";
    //Add the text to a paragraphs collection of the page
    sec1.Paragraphs.Add(text1);
    pdf1.Save(GetOutputPdf(myDir + "35732_out.pdf"));
}
