There's no explicit support for those at the moment, though this has come up before - you should be able to find a previous post on this topic in the XHTML sub-forum. And while you are at it, please move this topic there, where it belongs.

In any case, if you were to implement support, a contrib would be gratefully accepted.

Please note that a checkbox could be converted to:

- a checkbox content control
- a legacy VML/ActiveX control
- a symbol

Of these, I'd prefer a checkbox content control
