I'm working on some HTML5 content to be included as part of an iPad app in a Web View and it requires some custom fonts which I was attepting to implement via CSS and #font-face
As I understand it, Mobile Safari only supports SVG fonts, but my testing has shown Mobile Safari to really struggle with SVG and the performance hit is a serious issue.
So... is it possible to put fonts in the App Bundle and somehow make them available to the webview?
Yes it is. Include the fonts in the App Bundle and in the app-info.plist use
"Fonts provided by application"
and provide the file name for each font.
Looks something like this...

I have an IOS react native app that uses expo-image-picker to get images from the Image Library and Camera. When testing the app through Expo Go on an iPhone SE, the uri in ImagePicker.ImageInfo always gives a jpg file.
This behavior persists even when I upload an HEIC file to my phone, and use that file with the image picker. I also have High Efficiency setting enabled in the format section of the camera settings.
While this is my desired behavior, I don't want to rely on a misunderstanding of the library. Nowhere in the documentation are HEIC files mentioned, except for one example that indicates it is possible for the library to retrieve HEIC files.
Is it possible to get HEIC files, if so how?
We have used a custom theme which is not available in shopify theme store, We have used Help Center Faq app to display in front end, But the App css and functionality is not working and not even displaying the template selected in Help Center Faq app. Its displaying the custom theme functionality and css as Default Is there any way to override the custom theme css and functionality and to use the app css and functionality
The app should have a supported template list, contact the app support team.
Additionally, it seems your theme css it's overriding the app files. That's the reason why you shouldn't use unsupported themes unless you know what you are doing. Nevertheless, you can disable the theme css by creating a new layout file without the main css file in the header and only using the app css specific for that page.
I am using Noto Serif Medium font. Everything works as it should, when I launch the app with a fresh start.
The issue happens when I background the app and open anything that has not been rendered yet.
The classic "Unrecognised font family" error appears.
This error happens on iOS emulator and iOS physical devices.
I have checked targets, resources and Info.plist file in Xcode. Everything is there. Still this error happens.
I suspect that there could be an issue with the .ttf file itself, as you're not able to get this font from Google Fonts directly, even though it is a free to use font.
Is there anyone that can provide a lead to a solution?
This one was a dozzie.
Turns out, that it shouldn't have been working in a first place. It was a classical iOS font name issue. I don't know why it was working when the app wasn't backgrounded, but hey atleast the problem is solved.
Just use the PostScript name, not the real name tag in iOS fontbook.
I've been spinning my wheels on this subject for a few days. I have Xfinium PDF in a Xamarin.Forms application I'm working on and I need to generate a pdf in different languages. So I have different .otf files set up as a PdfUnicodeTrueTypeFont. Now this works in iOS no problem, but in Android the PDF is generated blank if I try to generate it in a language that needs one of these fonts. I also have lost the ability due some other things going on in my work environment to side load to android or debug in android at all.
Make sure the font is embedded in the PDF (either by looking at the file directly or using an application to get information on embedded fonts).
If the font is not embedded it's possible that Android is failing to fallback to another font for some reason. Does the PDF open correctly Chrome?
I am using a WebView control under WinRT to display html pages that are loaded from a sub folder of my Assets folder. When I run my app on a Windows 8 PC or on the tablet emulator everything works fine. However, when I am running on an actual Surface tablet, the pages do not seem to be loading the .css file and are, therefore, not formatted properly.
Is there something that I am missing here?
Thanks
Verify that the CSS file is being included in the app you're running on the Surface. Create an app package and then look inside it. To be thorough, copy the app package to your Surface and run it there to verify that the problem still occurs.
Run the Windows App Certification Kit (WACK) tool to uncover common problems. This is just a wild guess, but maybe your CSS file has the wrong encoding, and this causes a problem on Windows RT. Really, this is just a wild guess.
