How do I add downloadable fonts to iOS 14?

Hello,

according to this document the YuKyokasho Japanese font should be available for download on iOS 13+ devices but I'm unable to find how to use it on a SwiftUI app.

I have the font installed on my Mac through Font Book but I'm not sure if I can just copy it to my app's resources folder and use it as a custom font, because I may be breaking some obscure licensing terms.

Could somebody give me any hint on which is the proper way of doing this or point me to documentation?


Thanks!

Hi,

I have exactly the same question. I am porting a document Mac app to iOS and included fonts on Mac are in the list of downloadable on iOS, however I have no idea how to either trigger the download CTFontManagerRequestFonts just does the generic message nor could I explain to the customer how to install them manually (which at least for Mac new how).

So what does "Downloadable" mean?

All the best
