Default Ticks incorrectly shown as numbers in table when displayed on my m

I am editing a document in Word 2003 which is one large table. The document
was prepared by someone else and was emailed to me. A printed version was
also sent to me. There are ticks in many of the cells and i need to add more.
The printed version shows ticks correctly, but the emailed version renders
the ticks as 4s. However whn I emailed the document on to someone else in
hope of help, the ticks appeared correctly on theit PC.

I need to add a lot of ticks to empty cells.

I cannot find how to reformat this so as to appear correctly. Can anyone
help? There are very many ticks, and it will be impossible for me to go
through replacing every single one with a tick symbol. The "find and
replace" utility does not help.

Also can anyone please tell me why the Office update page now thinks I am
using a Mac? Similarly the general Windows update page.

It seems you are missing a font that others have on their PCs. Or perhaps
that font is corrupt on your PC. Find out what the font of these characters
is, and make sure you have it.
