    Hi everyone,
    I would need some advice: how can I print a checkbox item (to understand a checked or unchecked box) in a pdf file?
    I state that I create the pdf file with Qprinter.
    I tried to create a checkbox with html tags and through QTextDocument and then setHtml only prints the label part of the checkbox and not the box.
    How can I do it?

          If you say so, I thought the Accepted Solution there looked like it might work.

          If not then it's obviously not easy/possible to get a checkbox. Can only suggest you might have to make do with, say, an X for a checked box.

            the important thing is that the checked or unchecked box is displayed in the pdf file statically, that is, I am only interested in printing it .. then for check management I will do it with the software code before printing

              Hi
              You can render a QCheckBox to QPrinter.
              https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qwidget.html#render
              Not sure if you mean a real checkbox or some HTML something.
