Location of the fonts on the iPhone?
- by Kyle
I'm using the FreeType2 library in an iPhone project, and I'm trying to simply load a TTF file from the system, if possible.
FT_Library library;
FT_Face face;
int error;
error = FT_Init_FreeType( &library );
if ( error == 0 )
printf("Initialized FreeType2\r\n"); /* Prints */
error = FT_New_Face(library, "/System/Library/Fonts/Helvetica.ttf", 0, &face);
if ( error == FT_Err_Cannot_Open_Resource )
printf("Font not found\r\n"); /* Prints */
That error seems to be for file not found. Is /System/Library/Fonts not the location of the fonts? Or, do iPhone apps simply not have any read access at all to that directory.
Thanks!
