MD Checkbox in PDF

[e2045]

Hi,

In my MD file there are some check marks.

After converting all check marks disappear, they are converted into text like ": white_check_mark:" or ": x:" (no blank after :, i just made a blank to show you how it is).

How could I handle it to convert checkbox the right way?

Thank you in advance.

Hey I'm not sure what you mean exactly... can you provide some code examples, i. e. what kind of checkmark do you have in your markdown? I'm also not sure what you mean by "converted into text"... there's nothing in the code of md-to-pdf that would do that, at least not that I'm aware of.

Hi @simonhaenisch,

sorry for being unclear.

I have a md file like this

After conversion my pdf should be like this

But the result is

My code:

function converting(file){
    //converting md to pdf
    (async () => {
        let pdf = await mdToPdf(
            {path: file},
            {pdf_options: {
                printBackground: true,
                format: 'a4',
                margin: {
                    top: '30mm',
                    right: '20mm',
                    bottom: '30mm',
                    left: '20mm',
                },
            }
        }).catch(console.error);

        if (pdf) {
            let newFile = file.substring(0, (file.length - 3)) + ".pdf"
            fs.writeFileSync(newFile, pdf.content);
            console.log(newFile + ' is written');
        }

    })();
}

How could I handle that my pdf has check mark emoji after conversion?

My files:
checkmark.md
checkmark.pdf

Thank you in advance!
