I have a database that uses the Webdings font in a text field,  the letter "g" in Webdings is a square that fills the field and gives the impression of the time elapsed on a job.

 

Now I want to view this on my iPad and the font is not available so I get a field that looks like this:

 

ggggggggggggggg

 

 

Has anyone found a solution or different approach to accomplish this?

 

Thanks for any help.

 

Sandy

 

 

Arial contains a "Full Block" character ( █ ) and is supported on both iPhone and iPad.

 

On Windows, type Alt+2588; on a Mac, drag it out of the Character Viewer or follow these instructions: http://gigaom.com/2011/04/26/quick-tip-type-unicode-characters-quickly/.

Paul,

 

Many thanks this worked exceptionally well.
