title: Why does Wingdings not function on iOS 5? Why can't I use Wingdings in my iPhone app?
body: <p>I built a test app. All it does is populate a label on the screen with text and then try and change the font. 90% of the time this works just fine, even when I am using custom fonts that I have imported. However, I have not been able to get <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wingdings" rel="nofollow">Wingdings</a> to function even though I installed it in my resources folder and added it to the <code>info.plist</code></p>
  
  <pre><code>self.theLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Wingdings-Regular" size:64.0f];
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I thought maybe it was the name I was using, but I ran a test and found that not only is the family Wingdings installed, but Wingdings-Regular is the proper name. I ran experiments where I switched out "Wingdings-Regular" with other variations and noticed that when I do enter something that is garbage, the size is ignored. Using "Wingdings-Regular" the size is not ignored, but the letters show up normally instead of the Symbols I need. How do I fix this problem?</p>
  
  <p>I am pulling my hair out.</p>
