A Wingdings chart for when you need it. Users who want to add a little charm or decoration to their projects or designs can choose to do it with the famous Wingdings font. Wingdings contains symbols instead of alphanumeric characters (letters and numbers), using a different picture for each character. Wingdings and other fonts like Webdings are called dingbat fonts. I am trying to use wingdings 2 font in autoCAD for Mac 2017. In multiline text it is visible but once I select it and start typing it goes back to arial font. In Autocad for Mac 2016 all I did was change the value on the usequartzfont to '0' but this does not work for this version. I also check my fonts and wingdings is installed. I'am not really familiar with ubuntu and changing system files is not straightforward with the mac. I also read that changing system fonts can lead to problems. So I am a bit uneasy with doing this, but maybe this is the price to get the full potential of your great package. Please be know that I am on a Mac and a lot of PC work arounds have not been working. Is there a way to mail marge checkmarks (tick) into a work document from excel? Also is there a way to remove blank merge field lines, such as a second address line (using excel and word)? Suite #/ Apt# (remove this one if blank). Wingdings is not available on all computers, and so the intended characters may not appear on computers running non-Microsoft operating systems such as Mac OS 9, Mac OS X 10 or Linux. The intended characters are also unlikely to appear when using a standards-compliant browser such as Firefox, Netscape 6+, Opera 6+, Safari 3+ or SeaMonkey.

Wingdings 2 character set and equivalent Unicode characters

Wingdings 2 font should not be used in Web pages or in e-mails that will be viewed in a Web browser. Specifying Wingdings 2 font is contrary to the published HTML specifications, has never been a documented feature of HTML and is not reliable.

This page is not a demonstration of how to use Wingdings 2 font; it provides a warning of the problems that it causes, and shows how to use Unicode instead. Wingdings 2 is not available on all computers, and so the intended characters may not appear on computers running non-Microsoft operating systems such as Mac OS 9, Mac OS X 10 or Linux. The same problems are found with the Webdings, Wingdings and Wingdings 3 fonts – they should not be used in Web pages.

If you want to view a Web page that uses Wingdings 2 characters, then you need to use the Internet Explorer browser; other browsers may show none or only some of the Wingdings 2 characters.

This page lists (and attempts to display) all of the 216 characters in the Wingdings 2 font. It also lists (and attempts to display) the equivalent Unicode characters.

The characters that appear in the Wingdings 2 Character column of the following table are generated by the non-standard technique of specifying the Wingdings 2 font, using both <font face='Wingdings 2'> and. It is possible that your combination of browser and operating system will show Wingdings 2 characters, but browsers that conform to the published standards will demonstrate why Wingdings 2 font should not be used in Web pages.

The characters that appear in the Unicode Character column of the following table are generated from Unicode numeric character references, and so they should appear correctly in any Web browser that supports Unicode and that has suitable fonts available, regardless of the operating system.

Hi there,

somehow I am not able to placeeditable vector graphs in either word or powerPoint documents, but only when I use my mac.

I do the following:

#------------------------------------

require( ReporteRs )

require( ggplot2 )

doc <- pptx()

doc <- addSlide(doc,'Two Content' )

myplot <- ggplot(data=PlantGrowth,aes(x=group, y=weight, fill=group))+

geom_boxplot()

doc <- addPlot(doc,function() print(myplot), vector.graphic = FALSE )

doc <- addPlot(doc,function() print(myplot), vector.graphic = TRUE )

Error ineval(substitute(expr), envir, enclos) :

Fontconfig error: unable to match fontpattern

#------------------------------------

Everything works fine untilthe last line.

I must be a problem related tothe mac (I am using El Capitan and java version “1.6.0_65) as the same codeworks well with a windows workstation. On both systems I used the newestversions of R (version 3.3.2 (2016-10-31) -- 'Sincere Pumpkin Patch').

I am not able to fix thisissue. Any solutions or hints?
Kind regards,

Fred
