I like this font. but in license only allowed for use in Mockup UI. Feel free to use in commercial? https://mobbin.com/apps/bloom-ios-e1251835-34e6-426e-9f94-f9595f2567fa/1c919e9a-d144-4aa0-b788-f9752111e281/screens

I installed a custom font (Font awesome) into my app. I triple checked that I did everything right: the font files are included in the bundle (they appear in the "Copy Bundle Resources" build phase) and the names of the fonts appear in the Info.plist file under "Fonts provided by application". In Interface builder, I select a Label, set the font to "Custom", then I click the Family list to select the font I want. Once or twice, I was actually able to see the Font Awesome fonts in this list and select one. However, they no longer appear there when I create new labels in new views. I do not understand why. I've been limping along by copying a label from one of the views where it worked and pasting it into the new view, but this is tiresome. I know the fonts are installed correctly because I can see them when I run the app. Why are the fonts not showing up on the font list in interface builder?

Is there an API to register .ttf files that have variables fonts (ie one or more axes specified). CTFontManagerRegisterGraphicsFont() makes only the default variation available. The same file when specified in UIAppFonts of Info.plist makes all the variants available (confirmed by querying UIFont.fontName(forFamilyName:)) This is mostly required for registering fonts that are bundled as part of a Swift package.

I need to draw an attributed string into a given rectangle. The string's height should be the same as the rectangle's height. This should work with any font a user chooses. To make it a bit more complicated, the string should also fill the rect if it consists only of uppercase characters or only of lowercase characters. I am using NSLayoutManager to find the "best" font size for the selected font and the given recht and it works quite good with some fonts but with others it doesn't. Seems like the computed font size is always a bit too small and for some fonts it seems like the baseline must be corrected. Unfortunately I didn't find a way to calculate a baseline offset that really works with any font. I attached some sample images showing the issue. Just posting this to make sure I am not running in the complete wrong direction. Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks!

If a sufficiently long text in an HTML tag leads to a text wrap, the calculated values (y and width) of getBoundingClientRect for characters or words directly after the wrap are not correct, if the element or one of a parent is contenteditable="true" the y value has the value as if it were still before the break the width value spans the entire width, Here a code that reproduces this failure: https://stackblitz.com/edit/vitejs-vite-jwghts?file=src%2Fmain.ts,src%2FcalcLetterRects.ts,src%2Fstyle.css

In iOS 18 beta 5 version, setting the conversion to NSAttributedString using [.documentType: NSAttributedString.DocumentType.html] occasionally causes crashes. The same issue was encountered in previous versions. However, after running the code on the main thread, it no longer crashed. But after upgrading to the iOS 18 beta 5 version, it occasionally crashes even when running on the main thread. How can this issue be resolved? thx~

After upgraded to iOS 18，there was a crash of libGSFont.dylib. I followed the beta builds (22A5282M, 22A5297F, 22A5307F, 22A5307i), but it still exists. I also find some similar feedbacks(like https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/757041) but no response of it until now. There are already over 400 crashes everyday, hope apple developers can solve this issue or give us some suggestions soon. Crash

I've noticed that the font file PingFang.ttc is no longer in /System/Library/Fonts/LanguageSupport/ on iOS 18. And I use CoreText APIs get the new font file, which is int the FontServices.framework and named PingFangUI.ttc. But it doesn't seem to be a regular TrueType font collection. It can't be parsed correctly by stb_truetype. I copied this file to my mac, and it can't be opened by Font.app either, which says it doesn't contain installable fonts. It also can’t pass font validation (Font.app → File → Verify File), saying “System validation failed”, I don't know what that means. So I tried to read the binary of that file. I've noticed that the ‘CFF ‘ table is missing in the new font file, and there is a new table 'hvgl'. But I can't find any documentation for this table. Maybe this is a new format. And what confuses me is that the TTC header of the new font file has not changed, same as the old PingFang.ttc file, with a ‘ttcf’ tag, and majorVersion is 2 minorVersion is 0. Please tell me how to parse the new format, so maybe I can modify stb_truetype to get our app to work. Thanks!

I'm an iOS developer, and I've been testing our app in iOS 18.0 Beta. I noticed that there's a problem with the font rendering, and after troubleshooting, I've found out that it's caused by the removal of the PingFang.ttc font in 18.0. I would like to ask the reason for removing this font file and which font should be used to display Chinese in the future? My test device is an iPhone 11 Pro and the system version is iOS 18.0 (22A5297). I have also tested Beta 1 and it has the same issue. In previous versions of the system, the PingFang font is located in this directory /System/Library/Fonts/LanguageSupport/PingFang.ttc. But in iOS 18.0, the font file in this directory has become Kohinoor.ttc, and I've tested that this font can't display Chinese either. I traversed the following system font directories and could not find the PingFang.ttc font file. /System/Library/Fonts/AppFonts /System/Library/Fonts/Core /System/Library/Fonts/CoreAddition /System/Library/Fonts/CoreUI /System/Library/Fonts/LanguageSupport /System/Library/Fonts/UnicodeSupport /System/Library/Fonts/Watch Looking for answers, thanks for the help!

I can render text from TextKit2 into a PDF everything is fine. But in this case the font is embedded into the PDF. I need the Pdf to contains only the paths / glyphs and not font. I can't find a solution yet. I don't want to create an image or using UIViews etc. It would be nice to get the bezier path of the text I have done this with TextKit1 but the glyphs are gone with TextKit2 Can anyone help me ? Thanks :)

Hi, I am planning to bring my fonts to iOS. However, it can only works on app but not system-wide. I did watch the WWDC video but have no idea how it works (no sample code/project). Sample Code: let fontURLs = [Bundle.main.url(forResource: "File", withExtension: "otf")!] as CFArray CTFontManagerRegisterFontURLs(fontURLs, .none, true) { ... Thank you.

Before iOS 17, CTFrameGetLines(ctFrame) returns exact number of lines it will displayed on the screen. However after iOS 17.2.x, under some unknown condition, it returns less CTLines. It's easy to reproduce: let formattedString = NSMutableAttributedString() formattedString.append(.init(string: "你", attributes: [.font: UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 14)])) formattedString.append(.init(string: "\n\n\n\n\n\n好\n")) let ctSetter = CTFramesetterCreateWithAttributedString(formattedString as CFAttributedString) let rect = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 100, height: 1000) let bezierPath = UIBezierPath(rect: rect) let ctFrame = CTFramesetterCreateFrame(ctSetter, CFRangeMake(0, formattedString.length), bezierPath.cgPath, nil) let ctLines = CTFrameGetLines(ctFrame) print("CTLine count: \(CFArrayGetCount(ctLines))") The test code above should print CTLine count: 7, but actually it returns 4. One weird CTLine is like: - 1 : <CTLine: 0x3031e0780>{run count = 1, string range = (2, 3), width = 0, A/D/L = 9.24023/2.75977/0, glyph count = 3, runs = ( <CTRun: 0x10173ec50>{string range = (2, 3), string = "\n\n\n", attributes = { NSFont = "<UICTFont: 0x101728800> font-family: \"Helvetica\"; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; font-size: 12.00pt"; }} ) } never met this issue before, is it a bug or just new feature...

The app downloads assets consisting of custom fonts using tags from On-Demand Resources, registers them in the system font, and provides them to other apps such as Freeform through UIFontPickerViewController. Custom Fonts that were applied well until iOS 16 appear as Helvetica starting from iOS 17 and cannot be used. As the font list appears in the device's Settings > General > Font, the font downloaded from On-Demand Resources is registered in the system font. It has been confirmed to occur particularly frequently starting from iPhone 15 and iOS 17 and above. The app requests download from On-Demand Resources with NSBundleResourceRequest along with tags, receives assets in response with conditionally beginAccessingResources and beginAccessingResources, and then registers them in the system using CTFontManagerRegisterFontURLs.

I need to draw an outline of an Emoji glyph bounding box that is drawn in CGContext (macOS 14.4.1). I use NSLayoutManager - (void)drawGlyphsForGlyphRange:(NSRange)glyphsToShow atPoint:(NSPoint)origin; and I can get an emoji glyph bounding box using CoreText CGRect CTFontGetBoundingRectsForGlyphs(CTFontRef font, CTFontOrientation orientation, const CGGlyph *glyphs, CGRect *boundingRects, CFIndex count);. The bounding box is correct until the CGContext to which I draw the string with Emoji is not scaled or rotated. In such a case, an Emoji drawn in context is "sometimes" scaled, so its bounding box is not equal to the bounding box obtained from CoreText. Unfortunately, I can't figure out what the dependencies between glyph size, CGContext rotation, and scale are. I couldn't find any linearity between these variables. For example, an Emoji is drawn correctly at scale 6, rotation 0, when CGContext is rotated by 1 degree, Emoji is downsized by 1 pixel, then back in nominal size when rotation is between 2 and 4 degrees, then downsized for 5 degrees, nominal at 6, etc. Has anyone solved this?

Hello, I'm trying to get a better understanding of the SMS.db tables and fields. Does anybody have a document that describes each table and the fields within that table? I'd like to understand what each field in the Messages Table is used for but it would be a bonus if the is info is also available for the other tables contained in the SMS.db as well.

When running my app from Xcode Umlauts are all of a sudden broken in several places. The app has been out in the public w/o similar issues for years. For example, this is the result when entering a filename in my NSDocument-based app: So far I could only observe the bug when launching under Sonoma from Xcode but I'm worried this might be a general issue for users of the app running the release build. Any ideas about what happened in macOS 14.4..? Cheers, Jay

Starting with the macOS version 14.x.x and TextKit1, selecting multiple lines of text triggers a text replacement bug: some of the text on one of the selected lines inadvertently replaces a portion of the selected text. For example, the bug is exhibited when selecting the following lines: Carnaroli, Maratelli, or Vialone Nano are best Vialone Nano cooks quickly – watch it! It also absorbs condiments nicely. Avoid Baldo, Originario, Ribe and Roma To trigger the bug, select the three line paragraph using either the cursor or shift with arrow keys. Notice that a portion of the selected text was replaced. Command-Z to undo will allow you to repeat the undesired behavior. In this case, "e Nano cooks quickly - " is replaced by "Baldo, Originario, Ribe." This does not occur with all strings or selected strings, but in cases where it does occur, it is perfectly reproducible. It does not occur on iOS. Pasteboard contents are irrelevant. After triggering the bug repeatedly, at some point it stops occurring. Why does this bug occur? How can it be fixed? Here is some sample code to reproduce the issue. @end @implementation TestNoteViewController - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; [self createTextView]; } - (void)createTextView { NSAttributedString *attrString = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:self.note.text attributes:nil]; NSTextStorage *textStorage = [NSTextStorage new]; [textStorage appendAttributedString:attrString]; CGRect newTextViewRect = self.view.bounds; // Create the layout manager NSLayoutManager *layoutManager = [NSLayoutManager new]; [textStorage addLayoutManager:layoutManager]; // Create a text container NSTextContainer *container = [[NSTextContainer alloc] initWithSize:CGSizeMake(newTextViewRect.size.width, CGFLOAT_MAX)]; [layoutManager addTextContainer:container]; // Create and place a text view UITextView *textView = [[UITextView alloc] initWithFrame:newTextViewRect textContainer:container]; [self.view addSubview:textView]; textView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = NO; UILayoutGuide *safeArea = textView.superview.safeAreaLayoutGuide; [textView.leadingAnchor constraintEqualToAnchor:safeArea.leadingAnchor].active = YES; [textView.trailingAnchor constraintEqualToAnchor:safeArea.trailingAnchor].active = YES; [textView.topAnchor constraintEqualToAnchor:safeArea.topAnchor].active = YES; [textView.bottomAnchor constraintEqualToAnchor:textView.superview.bottomAnchor].active = YES; } @end

custom font is not displayed in storyboard after clean all data and restart still not working

Hello, First time poster. Was wondering if someone might know the answer to this. So I wanted to use a fancy font in my iPhone app for a title. The following code works fine, but the font I really want is “Apple Chancery” but it will not show up on the iPhone, even though this font is default on all Mac books. Any ideas why that font will not work? Thanks… Text("(whiskyname)") .frame(width: 350, height:56) .background(Color.blue.opacity(0.3)).border(Color.black, width: 3) .cornerRadius(5) .font(.custom("Snell Roundhand", fixedSize: 45)) .foregroundColor(.black) .bold()
