Print checkbox box into file pdf

Safer

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?

Thanks JonB, but nothing .. unfortunately it doesn't work and I don't print the box ...

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.

Not sure if you mean a real checkbox or some HTML something.
