NSLog (#"Font families: %#", myLable.font.familyName);

Answer 1

As suggested by #keyur bhalodiya you have to use the font name like #"OpenSnas" for regular fonts
Create a custom label subclass of UILabel 'CustomFontLabel'
in CustomFontLabel.h define property to set the font name
#interface CustomFontLabel : UILabel
#property (nonatomic) IBInspectable NSString *overrideFontName;
#end
In the .m file add the below code
- (void)setOverrideFontName:(NSString *)overrideFontName
{
if (![_overrideFontName isEqualToString:overrideFontName])
{
_overrideFontName = overrideFontName;
self.font = self.font;
}
}
- (void)setFont:(UIFont *)font
{
NSString *overrideFontName = self.overrideFontName;
if (overrideFontName != nil)
{
font = [UIFont fontWithName:overrideFontName size:font.pointSize];
}
[super setFont:font];
}
With the IBInspectable you can even set the overrideFontName property from Storyboard also. Don't forget to set the label class to CustomLabel in the storyboard. Try that and let me know, if it's working or not..!
