Will work on next 0.5.x release, if you still have a problem in that you see
"something" inside the box but it is not a check, the problem is that your
distribution does not have a correct fontconfig substitution for ZapfDingbats
font, see http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software_2fpoppler for more info.
