You can do custom fonts on the iPhone, but you cannot use system
controls to draw with them. You have to draw yourself each glyph.
There is some info on the Apple iPhone Dev forums on how to do this.

custom.
I know this is doable, though, because the app Eucalyptus includes
custom fonts (the Libertine family). And it's not using UIWebView
for its display, so it must be registering the font itself. It may
be that you have to make some ATS calls to explicitly load a font
from a file?
