Question

Is it possible to apply custom (added to the app) font to UILabel text via UIBuilder or it can be done only programmatically ?

I have already added

Fonts provided by application

key in application plist

Answer 1

It can only be done programmaticaly, but it is simple: crate a subclass of UILabel and then overwrite the awakeFromNib method:

-(void)awakeFromNib{
   [super awakeFromNib];
   self.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"MyFancyFont" size:self.font.pointSize];
}

(with this method you keep the font size you set in IB.)

In the Identity Inspector in IB you have to set the label to the class you created, in “Custom Class” (where it says “UILabel” now).
