some have shown success in doing just that. To those who have done it, what i wanted to simply ask is:
What type of subclass did you put the code in? Mines is a UIView subclass but doesnt work.
What kind of interface and with what controls are you using? I am simply making a UIView with the code in order to test to see if it works and test other properties and customizable functions of the custom fonts. It doesnt work.
What specific property declarations must be in the .h file? I have none and it doesnt work.
Note that when I say it doesnt work, it actually compiles without errors, but when I build and go I just get a blank grey screen.
What say you?

To use Stanza you need Stanza's desktop client in order to get your books onto the iPhone. If you have an account with eReader.com, you can upload personal content to your bookshelf and transfer them to eReader on your iPhone in the same way you do books purchased from eReader's website. Keep in mind that neither will work with MobiPocket books that are DRM protected. Stanza will work with non-DRM formatted books (including Mobi's format), but nothing which has DRM protection. I have both and use Stanza for anything without DRM protection, and eReader for books Palm formatted books with DRM protection.

  • Best way to export and import data from an iPhone app?

    How do people here prefer to export and import data from an iPhone app?
    For example, suppose your app creates or modifies a plist. It might be nice to provide that plist to the user for separate backup and later allow them to re-import it.
    How do people do that? Email the plist to an address? If so, how would one later get it back in?
    Is there a common way people do this kind of thing?
    Thanks,
    doug

    Or maybe the best approach for this is some sort of file synchronization feature? Is there a way of having files from the app's filesystem automatically get stored on the computer's filesystem when synchronizing and vice-versa?

  • How to import Custom idoc into  IR?

    I have a custom idoc and i need to map it with the receiver format after importing into IR . Please let me know the sequence of steps to import custom idoc into  Integration repository?
    I think I need to first import into IDX2 and then import into repository. Am I correct?

    Hi Prateek,
    thanks for the information .The normal standard idocs we import by searching the idoc eg- for importing matmas we type mat and we search it, since it is a standard idoc it will be available in the list (after selecting the chek box "Import of idoc or rfc interfaces from sap system permitted").
    But my question is how we import custom idoc as they wont be present in the list?

  • Cannot open projects or import custom skins into RH*

    Hi,
    I just got a new laptop and I'm unable to open ANY projects or import custom skins into RH8.  I was on 8 previously, but I cannot open my projects nor can I import skins.  I click on Skins>import>choose the skin, then nothing.  It's like it's not even recognizing I'm doing anything.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    If you can't open a project, how are you getting to the File > Import > Skin menu item? Also can you give us some additional information about the laptop (e.g. the OS).

    Not unless it goes back online.  If it was stolen it may have been restored, in which case it will never appear again in Find My iPhone.

  • Import a video into iphone imovie for editting

    Hi everyone!
    This is my first question and need a bit of help. I only have an iphone with imovie on it.
    Is it possible to import a video into imovie to use and edit it on the iphone?
    The video I want to import was taken by a camcorder and I assume I will need to convert it into an .MOV file but then how do I get it into imovie???
    Thank you in advance!

    You need to convert those videos to iMovie for iOS compatible video format on your computer, then sync the converted video to your iPhone 4. Here's instructions for doing so on a Mac:

  • How do I get imported iPhoto photos into iPhone Photostream

    I imported a photo into iPhoto.  If I click on it, click actions and share to Photostream, I get a message saying it is already in Photostream.  Yet, it does not show up in the iPhoto Photostream folder on my Mac. Nor does it show up in my iPhone Photostream folder. I believe I have iCloud set up properly on both devices and have configured iPhoto correctly.  What am I missing?  Is there something I can do to force a sync?

    Hi John..
    You can force Photo Stream to sync ...
    On your Mac open System Preferences > iCloud. Deselect the box next to Photo Stream, then reselect it, then restart your Mac.
    On your iPhone tap Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream. Toggle the button off then back on then restart the iPhone.
    Restart your device: Hold the power button until "slide to power off" appears.  Slide to power off.  After it is off, press the power button to turn it back on.

  • Custom fonts on iOS app using AIR 3.9

    we are building an app for iOS using AIR 3.9 where we have to display the text using different fonts which are not available on iOS 5 or later. To fix this issue we have found a solution using XCode via ANE where by using "CTFontManagerRegisterGraphicsFont" class we can download the font from a location and register it on the device(working on mac using simulator ).  But when we are packaging the ANE with AIR 3.9, it gives us the error which says that:-
    Error occurred while packaging the application:
    Undefined symbols for architecture armv7:
      "_CTFontManagerRegisterGraphicsFont", referenced from:
          ___setPath_block_invoke in libnet.example.download.a(IOSFontLib.o)
    ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture armv7
    Compilation failed while executing : ld64
    can anyone suggest where we are going wrong!
    thanks in advance

    According to this post, using CTFontManagerRegisterGraphicsFont should still work on iOS too:

  • Importing installed fonts into CS6

    Hello everybody,
    I have acquired InDesign CS6 for a couple of my users and have installed our firm’s standard Marketing font (various weights of HelveticaNeueLTStd) on their PCs and added the font files to the InDesign folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS6\Fonts, installed from there as well, however the fonts do not seem to import into InDesign when it is run.
    I have followed all direction I have found online without any success. 
    Is this something someone has seen before and if so, how did you resolve it?
    Would be most grateful for any help/direction at all.
    Thank you.
    Henry

    Hi P Spier,
    All of that basic stuff done, however I did not delete the .lst file.
    Once that was done and the PC was restarted, my new fonts now appear in InDesign.
    Guess you are Mr FixIt!!!
    Most grateful for your solution.

  • Import new font into iMovie?

    I bought a .TTF font and installed it in Fontbook. It shows up in other places (Quicktime Pro, Adobe Indesign etc) but not in the list of fonts for iMovie HD 6. Can't believe I couldn't find anything about under this entire thread. The font sits in the Users>Library>Font folder. Thanks for clues.

    You should heed the warning. Can't tell what the problem is. Might be the font somehow got corrupted.
    I would try the oft applied maintenance of deleting preferences and doing a permissions repair. To delete preferences, close iMovie and trash the file named com.apple.iMovie.plist found in User (the house icon)/Library/Preferences. Also, drag to your desk top the FontCollections file (NOT the Font Book) found in User (the house icon)/Library.
    Then do a permissions repair using the Disk Utility app found in HD/Applications/Utilities. In the left hand pane of the Disk Utility window select your hard drive icon and then click on repair permissions. Takes about 3 minutes to repair. Then relaunch iMovie and see if you still have the problem. iMovie will recreate the .plist file that you deleted, as well as the FontCollections file. After confirming that the FontCollections file has been replaced in User/Library, you can delete the one on your desk top.
    If you still have the problem, you might try clearing the troublesome font out of your system, and then reinstalling, following the directions for "Installing a font" in the Help menu. Skip trying to drag into the computer folder.
    I can't think of anything else to try right now.
