How do you stylize a font in Swift?

I am assuming this is a custom font. For any custom font this is what you do.

1. First download and add your font files to your project in Xcode (The files should appear as well in “Target -> Build Phases -> Copy Bundle Resources”).

2. In your Info.plist file add the key “Fonts provided by application” with type “Array”.

3. For each font you want to add to your project, create an item for the array you have created with the full name of the file including its extension (e.g. HelveticaNeue-UltraLight.ttf). Save your “Info.plist” file.

label.font = UIFont (name: "HelveticaNeue-UltraLight", size: 30)

A great resource is iosfonts.com, which says that the name for that font is HelveticaNeue-UltraLight. So you'd use this code:

label.font = UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue-UltraLight", size: 30)

If the system can't find the font, it defaults to a 'normal' font - I think it's something like 11-point Helvetica. This can be quite confusing, always check your font names.
