I'm trying to print the ✔ symbol using XeLaTeX and directly from the code (i.e. putting the symbol into the source code directly and not using some macro). I have the following MWE:



documentclassarticle

usepackagefontspec
setmainfontLato

begindocument
This is a test: ✔
enddocument


But it doesnt work:



xelatex test.tex


enter image description here



However, using Libertine font (with usepackagelibertine) works OK.



Is there a way to do it?



Thank you very much in advance.

The font has no glyph for that character (you can see it from the “missing symbol” glyph or from the message in the log file).



Use a font that provides it. Here I use Libertinus Serif.

usepackagenewunicodechar

You might want to have the symbol not to change based on the current conditions. Then use

usepackagefontspec
usepackagenewunicodechar

setmainfontLato

I use the Iosevka font just to see the difference in the two situations.
