I have an app with UIWebView which loads a remote HTML page…Now on this HTML, I have set font-family: Calibri; and font-size: 12pt;

But for some reasons, this font is not applied while viewing the page from the app…

I can see the font from a regular browser.

How do I get the same font to be applied from the app also ?

    As far as I know, the Calibri font isn’t included by default in the iOS framework, which is why the font isn’t showing in your UIWebView but it is in your browser (for a list of iOS fonts, check out http://iosfonts.com).

    To add a new font to your app, you must do it manually (don’t worry, it’s pretty straightforward !).

    Check out this answer here to see how.

    There are also a few decent tutorials on how to include custom fonts in your app:
