Wingdings Not Working In Word For Mac
The rendering of Opaquefont should give the word 'Opaque' on all platforms. This is the correct behavior I see on Windows. If it is not the behavior observed on the Mac then there is a bug on that platform. 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). I found that two Wingdings symbols do not print in Word 2011 under Snow Leopard: The 2D box created by typing a lower-case o, and the small cross from typing an upper-case X. They display in print layout view, but upon selecting the Print command, they do not show up in the preview box, nor do they appear on a printed sheet or when saved as a PDF. At a guess, the Wingdings fonts are used for bullets. Note that you could also try deleting the ListGal.dat file in your Windows user profile and see if that fixes the crashing bulleted lists. To locate the file, first display hidden files and folders in File Explorer/Windows Explorer. Stefan Blom, Microsoft Word MVP.
-->Overview
The Wingdings fonts were designed by Kris Holmes and Charles Bigelow in 1990 and 1991. The fonts were originally named Lucida Icons, Arrows, and Stars to complement the Lucida text font family by the same designers. Renamed, reorganized, and released in 1992 as Microsoft Wingdings(TM), the three fonts provide a harmoniously designed set of icons representing the common components of personal computer systems and the elements of graphical user interfaces. There are icons for PC, monitor, keyboard, mouse, trackball, hard drive, diskette, tape cassette, printer, fax, etc., as well as icons for file folders, documents, mail, mailboxes, windows, clipboard, and wastebasket. In addition, Wingdings includes icons with both traditional and computer significance, such as writing tools and hands, reading glasses, clipping scissors, bell, bomb, check boxes, as well as more traditional images such as weather signs, religious symbols, astrological signs, encircled numerals, a selection of ampersands and interrobangs, plus elegant flowers and flourishes. Pointing and indicating are frequent functions in graphical interfaces, so in adition to a wide selection of pointing hands, the Wingdings fonts also offer arrows in careful gradations of weight and different directions and styles. For variety and impact as bullets, asterisks, and ornaments, Windings also offers a varied set of geometric circles, squares, polygons, targets, and stars.

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()
Insert Wingding In Word
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
Rahsia nombor magnum 4d. #------------------------------------
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,
