I have a PDF that has really small checkboxes (about 6 width & 6 height) & it appears that the checkboxes & checks won't line up.
So my solution was going to be hiding the checkbox & only showing the check since the PDF has a box there anyway, if there's a better way, please let me know.

I've attached a photo for better visualization of my issue.

Hello,

If your PDF already has checkboxes border in background, you can simply remove the border from the created checkbox in the E2Pdf Template. To do this, right-click the checkbox, go to "Properties," and set the "Border" value to "0".

It’s important to align the checkbox boxes themselves, not the checkmarks, in the E2Pdf Template. This is due to style bug where the checkmark may appear outside the checkbox (if "checked"). We have replicated this issue, and it will be fixed in a future update. However, this bug does not affect the actual rendering of the checkbox in the PDF - the checkbox should appear where the box is placed (not based on the checkmark’s position).

If the checkboxes are still not fully aligned in the rendered PDF, you can fine-tune the "Left" and "Top" positions in the E2Pdf Template by adjusting the pixel values as needed for better alignment.

We would really appreciate your feedback at WordPress.org!
