How to add fonts in 3.0

chrisridd · 06-20-2016, 12:51 PM

The app refers to supporting fonts present in the app's document folder.

But how do you get a font into the app's document folder? If I email myself an EPUB I can open that in (copying it into) Marvin 3, but if I email myself a TTF there's no option to open that in Marvin 3.

The selection of included free fonts is a nice touch, BTW.

@chrisridd You'll have to drag them into Marvin's documents directory using iTunes. I'm working on an email and 'send to...' method for the next update. I'll also be posting a bunch of tutorials over the coming weeks.

Ah yes, using iTunes works - thanks!

Nowadays it feels a bit odd doing things to the phone using iTunes, so an update to use the sharing/open in extension thing would be great.

@chrisridd You are right of course. Coming to think of it, I can't see how I missed it. I'm expecting to ship a quick update in a week.
