--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Liberation Sans does not contain a glyph for codepoint U+2611 'BALLOT BOX WITH
CHECK';  this requires os/DE font management to apply a font fallback. That is
not controlled by LibreOffice. This is normal expected bahavior.

To exactly control the result and avoid fallback handling, identify a font [1]
[2] actually containing the glyphs desired and format the cells character
assignment to match that font.

Remember to embed the font if sending the document to others that may not have
it.

=-ref-=
A Unicode character map program is most helpful to review with, look for a font
coverage utility to show the fonts holding a desired glyph.
