The new San Francisco fonts in iOS 9 are optimized for the size it will be used at, by adjusting tracking and dynamically switching between SF Display and SF Text. It was noted in the WWDC session #804 developers should not use San Francisco by attempting to initialize a UIFont using fontWithName , for example: UIFont *originalFont = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:11]; UIFont *newFont = [UIFont fontWithName:originalFont.fontName size:44]; This is because the system cannot optimize the font for the new size when using the fontWithName API. Instead it was recommended to get the UIFontDescriptor from

In Apple's Apple Watch Design Resources , there is a document called Alternate Font Weights and Italicizations . In it, it shows examples of what the default font looks like with different attributes such as Italic , Emphasized , and Short applied to it. Assume I want to use a font that looks exactly like the "Short" example. Is there any way to choose this font and style via the storyboard for a label? In code, how would I set a label to use this font and style? Senseful In an iOS project, I tried modifying the body font ( UIFontTextStyleBody ) to include UIFontDescriptorTraitTightLeading .

I have a problem with custom font. Namely it's Tw Cen MT.ttf It's the same problem as in here: Custom font not showing on device, but does on simulator Except the given solution doesn't work for me. I have done exactly what you should do: Added Font to Info.plist Added Font to Copy Bundle Resources section in Build Phases. Used font programmatically by name not filename. It still doesn't work. What's more interesting - when I list available fonts: NSLog(@"%@", [UIFont familyNames]); It shows me my font on simulator but does not show it on the device. I tested it both on the new iPad and iPhone

I'm trying to add some custom fonts to an iPhone app through UIAppFonts in Info.plist . I can reach both fontnames by code, i.e. MyFont-Bold and MyFont-Medium . My problem is that the last font in UIAppFonts array overrides the other one, making both MyFont-Bold and MyFont-Medium render out MyFont-Bold if this is the last entry in the plist array. By dragging MyFont-Bold as the first entry makes both font-names render MyFont-Medium. The property list excerpt: UIAppFonts item 0 MyFont-Medium item 1 MyFont-Bold I'm calling the font with: UIFont* applicationFontBold = [UIFont fontWithName:@

I am creating UILabel, for the label i can set the font name as HelveticaNeue Regular, Light, UltraLight etc, But i unable to set the font name as HelveticaNeue Thin, it is not working as expected. I did like, label.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"HelveticaNeue-Thin" size:16]; Also i have searched on Google didnt got any solution. How to fix this issue? Thanks. This font is bundled with iOS 7, so if you're targeting iOS 7 and above your label.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"HelveticaNeue-Thin" size:16.0f]; will work. However if you are targeting iOS 6.1 and below you'll need to embed the font
