> How exactly are these represented in Word?

Word 2007 uses a glyph from the font Symbol for the black circle, U+25A0
(Times New Roman) for the black square, U+006F (o) from Courier New for
the white circle, a glyph from WingDings for the smaller black square –
in short, a bloody mess.

Nothing prevents the user from choosing appropriate symbols from Unicode
there, it just isn't the default in most cases.

Regards,
Johannes
