Answer 4

Bold fonts have another name that regular or italic ones.

If you want to know the exact name of a font, I suggest you to download the "Fonts" iphone application, on the appStore. It's free and it references every possible font that your phone handle.

It's not my app, it just an app that every iphone developer should have.

...and for helvetica, you have :

• @"Helvetica"
• @"Helvetica-Bold"
• @"Helvetica-BoldOblique"
• @"Helvetica-Oblique"
