IBCustomFonts category allows you to use custom fonts from Interface Builder (IB) when building your iOS apps.

  • Apps using IBCustomFonts category are approved by Apple App Store.

Usage

  1. Add UIFonts+IBCustomFonts.m file to your Xcode project.

  2. Add custom fonts to your application as usual (don’t forget to define them in your app Info.plist as Fonts provided by application array)

  3. Add new dictionary to your app Info.plist named IBCustomFonts and add to it key-value pairs where key is name of font used in IB and value is name of your custom font.
    For example: HelveticaNeue and CustomFont-Bold or HelveticaNeue-Italic and CustomFont-Italic
