Why Wingdings 2 is not interpreted in rdlc reportviewers but in pdf?

Question

I am using Wingdings 2 in rdlc report and when I export it to pdf, it works but when displaying in browser, it doesn't work at all. Why?

in expression field it's like

=IIF(Fields!Testname.Value, Chr(82), Chr(163))

but in web browser it appears like

RTestname


£FieldName

See the special character?

Answer 1

Using ChrW(&H2611), ChrW(&H2610) and setting font family to Arial Unicode MS helped.

=IIF(Fields!Columnname.Value,ChrW(&H2611), ChrW(&H2610))
