FontSwap: Imminent Release
by gaurav on Nov.27, 2008, under iPhone
so here are screenshots from my first iPhone app…
FontSwap:
i hope this goes down well with you guys.. especially users who complain abut the complicated process of installing custom fonts.. this will make it easier..
there are font categories for which the app works as seen in the screens above
fonts have to be put in packages to be identified by the application.
FontName.font
I will add facility to read and display font information like, author, preview, etc in a third section.. could only manage to finish two TableViews to get a feel of the Objective-C language. this works for now so i’ll release it soon..

Actually, this misalignment happens with every font here (3gs 3.0) – even when I switch back to the “Default” font. Only resetting all back to default will align the default font properly again. Looking foward to a fix. This is a great application!

I love your app font swap. But I’m on the newer 4.0 firmware. Could you please figure out how to make font swap work on the newer firmware? I really would love to use your app. Thanks.
