Custom fonts on iOS app using AIR 3.9

[Guest]

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:

since it requires the CoreText framework have you included the following option in your <linkerOptions> set in platform.xml?

<option>-framework CoreText</option>
