ios - Web font (using @font-face) visible in web page but not visible on user's system controls -



ios - Web font (using @font-face) visible in web page but not visible on user's system controls -

i building web site in myanmar burmese language , far successful in showing burmese font using css so:

@font-face { font-family: zawgyi-one; src: url('../../fonts/zawgyi.eot'); /* ie9 compat modes */ src: url('../../fonts/zawgyi.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), /* ie6-ie8 */ url('../../fonts/zawgyi.woff') format('woff'), /* modern browsers */ url('../../fonts/zawgyi.ttf') format('truetype'), /* safari, android, ios */ url('../../fonts/zawgyi.svg#zawgyi-one') format('svg'); /* legacy ios */ } body { font-family: zawgyi-one !important; }

and working fine long text displayed in browser.

however, when open website in iphone, , click on 1 of dropdown menus, ios scheme drop downwards shows , shows gibberish instead of proper characters so:

i suspect happens because ios scheme dropdown operating scheme component , since font installed in web browser context, scheme dropdown cannot render font. please right me if wrong.

question:

how show burmese font correctly in ios dropdowns?

a) without asking user download burmese font or system?

b) can without user installing font in or system?

c) there way automatically install font user's scheme (i don't think possible please right me if wrong).

yes because font accessible web page , not available system. cannot straight install font device. can done using configuration profiles , think this illustration how want work. can inquire user download , install font

here bit more readable info configuration profiles

ios css fonts
