Default Custom italic font.

Hi,

I'm trying to make a custom italic, i know how is done bold but following the
same pattern leads to nowhere.

For example, this works for bold:

Code:
fontName = @"myFavouriteFont-Bold";
[label setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:fontName size:[fontSize intValue]]];
The same doesn't work for italic:

Code:
fontName = @"myFavouriteFont-Italic";
[label setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:fontName size:[fontSize intValue]]];

BrianSlick has a spectacular aura about
Default

It isn't a trick, it's the name of the font. Perhaps that isn't the correct name of the italic version. See the UIFont docs, there are ways to find out the available names.
