For a project I bought a OTF font and included it into my project (with adding to plist file etc). It works and I can set the font on my buttons, but the label is displaced then. I added a screenshot so you can see my issue. Anyone an idea what the problem can be?

system: iPad 3 with iOS 6.0 beta, but same problem on iOS 5.1.1

EDIT:

I found a post about the problem.

    summary:

    • Download the Apple Font Tool Suite
    • Terminal: ftxdumperfuser -t hhea -A d font.ttf
    • XML file created in the directory
    • Open XML with Text Editor and adjust the settings of ascender, descender
    • Terminal:ftxdumperfuser -t hhea -A f font.ttf
    • Add custom font to your projekt(dont forget plist item)
