Hi, I am trying to use CTFontDescriptorMatchFontDescriptorsWithProgressHandler to download a font. It appears to download fine, and I can display it in my application. [UIFont familyNames] includes that font.
I restart my application, and [UIFont familyNames] does not include the downloaded font, and I can’t create the font using fontWithName:size:.
I have tested this on both my iPad and the simulator, and it always forgets the downloaded font on restart of the application.
On the simulator, if I go to Library/Assets/com_apple_MobileAsset_Font I can see the folder with the downloaded font in it, and there is a com_apple_MobileAsset_Font.plist file which includes all the information about the downloaded font. So it knows about the font, and the font is really there, but when I try to use it in my application it isn’t there until I download it again during that session.
Is there something I am doing wrong? Do I need to initialize something to get it to include the downloaded fonts in the search?
Regards
Gideon
