I am writing an app where I have to insert text in the form of dots, similar to that found on scoreboards. An example would be like
Is there an iOS open source library I can use to do this ?
You can use UIFont to accomplish this easily using a .ttf font file:

if i have this arabic text: "لِلَّهِ" it looks very weird only Apple devices.
but if i paste the same exact text for example in a google chrome textfield it shows this (which is correct):
What can i do so my UITextView allows all characters regardless of which language/word it is?
You can always download any font you like and just import it into your app. To do that upload .ttf files to project > register fonts in Info.plist file ("Fonts provided by application")
I always use googleFonts to find suitable font for me
I had to change the font to an arabic font style you can download on the web.
I am trying to incorporate a custom font in my app. I am using Nova Solid created by Billy Argel.
I imported the font and set it in info.plist. When I set a label to the Nova Solid font it shows up on storyboard as the correct font:
But when I run the app, the font displays as the default font:
Every other font I import works fine, not sure if it's something with these specific fonts by Argel or something I'm doing. I will appreciate some insight/help.
This is my info.plist
There's a chance that the font file isn't added as a target, try inspecting the file and making sure it is a target otherwise the font file won't be distributed with the app.
This is a common issue when the font works in IB but doesn't work in the simulator/on a device.

Before display any custom font that is not supported in iPhone, you need to add this font to ios.
You need to add your Font to yourApp-Info.plist. This answer will help you to do so.
You have to add custom fonts in your project before you use them.
This includes following steps:
Include your fonts in your XCode project
Make sure that they’re included in the target
Double check that your fonts are included as Resources in your bundle
Include your iOS custom fonts in your application plist
Find the name of the font
Use UIFont and specify the name of the font
Moreover refer to this answers on stackoverflow
iOS-Custom Font setting with Fonts specs
In my app, I used custom fonts. It works fine for UILabels, etc...
But the Title is cut from top for Button.
"See the S"
What is happening and how can I resolve this??
try setting button.contentEdgeInsets property to align the title within the button, if it is an issue of misligned baseline of the font you can do this
button.titleLabel.baselineAdjustment = UIBaselineAdjustmentAlignCenters
a few steps:
Include your fonts in your XCode project
Make sure that they’re included in the target
Double check that your fonts are included as Resources in your bundle
Include your iOS custom fonts in your application plist
Find the name of the font
Use UIFont and specify the name of the font

In my case it was the font file that was corrupted.
Try to open the ttf file in your mac, select the 'S' and see if the frame that appears cuts off the letter.
My solution was to change the ttf file.
I want to create a label with "ComicSans" font but it don't work, why?
I write my label and when I go to change its font, it don't change...
These are the fonts that are supported on iPad & iPhone. "ComicSans" is not a part of it. Maybe you need to select something else...
First of all you will need .ttf files of all fonts.
