Question

I have a UIWebView and I have a custom font I want to load into an editable html document that I will be displaying through the UIWebView. In my SupportingFiles (resources) folder I have “Nosifer-Regular.ttf”… To use the custom font in my HTML I need the path (URL) to the font tile… I tried doing this, but it didn’t seem to work… any ideas?

bundle = [NSBundle mainBundle];
    pathFont = [bundle bundlePath];
    fontURL = [NSBundle pathForResource:@"Nosifer-Regular" ofType:@"ttf" inDirectory:pathFont];
    path_font = [fontURL stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
    fileAppend = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"file://"];
    path_font = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"%@%@", fileAppend, path_font];

The HTML (CSS):

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Nosifer';
  font-style: normal;
  font-weight: 400;
  src: local('Nosifer'), local('Nosifer-Regular'), url('%@') format('truetype');
}

Where %@ is replaced with “path_font” (defined above in the first code block)

Answer 1

First of all, add filed “Fonts provided by application” in your info.plist. It will be an array like

item0 myFont.otf
item1 anotherFont.ttf

or something.

In HTML use font-face to add a font. And place your font files in the same directory with html file. If HTML is generated dynamically and not shown from bundle then you should copy font .

Good luck.
