How to add and use a custom font in my xcode project

Question

I am trying to add and use a font within my app. I've followed this post for reference but I can't get it to work.

I've added the font Frutiger95UltraBlack.ttf as a supporting file and then added it to my {app-name}-Info.plist.

Then tried to use it in my app delegate to change my UINavegationBar but nothing happens.

What am i missing??

 [[UINavigationBar appearance] setTitleTextAttributes:[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
                                                          [UIColor whiteColor], UITextAttributeTextColor,
                                                          [UIFont fontWithName:@"Frutiger95UltraBlack" size:16.0], UITextAttributeFont,nil]];

Answer 1

（从我上面的评论:) [UIFont fontWithName:...]需要字体的PostScript名称作为参数，可能与文件名不同。

Answer 2

make sure that your font is in your Copy Bundle Resources.

if we not adds font to target then sometimes it happens that your font not automatically adds in Copy Bundle Resources.

also make sure that your font name is same that you have used. you can make this sure by opening font in fontBook.

if you have different fonts like Regular/Bold/italic,then you have to attach this name to your font name like this- Frutiger95UltraBlack-Bold

install your font on mac system.iterate your all fonts programatically , write NSLog for fontName, by this way you can make sure the name of font ie PostScriptName.

Just an FYI, UITextAttributeTextColor and UITextAttributeFont were deprecated in iOS 7.0.

Instead replace UITextAttributeTextColor with NSForegroundColorAttributeName and UITextAttributeFont with NSFontAttributeName
