Is it possible to use custom (ie non-system) fonts within iPhone apps? I have tried selecting other fonts from within IB and am getting very sporadic and unexpected results. I can’t seem to find any information on this anywhere online or in the documentation.

Thanks in advance-B

Hi Bryan,

As far as I know there is no way to add fonts to the iPhone.

The only way I’ve found to add your own font is through OpenGL|ES, and store your fonts as a texture map. It really is very fast and the GL|ES layer can be overlayed ontop of your current layer.
