First make sure that the problem actually is what you think it is:
Copy and paste the empty square boxes to an environment which does use its
own fonts.
Pasting to SC UniPad, available at http://www.unipad.org will do nicely.
If in UniPad the text displays well, _then_ complain to Peachtree.
By the way, the inability of Peachtree to _display_ those chars should have
_no_ impact on how they are processed further.
Unless the font for output has changed too the square boxes will be readable
chars in the output.
