How to use programmatically defined font in storyboard in iOS?

Question

I have so many UILabels and buttons in storyboard in a same style And I also have a list of fonts like

#define FLOAT_F1  [UIFont systemFontOfSize:18]
#define FLOAT_F2  [UIFont systemFontOfSize:16]

Can I use these defines in storyboard?So that I don't have to change it one by one in storyboard if the standards is changed.

You can create custom Label as shown below.

File : UICustomLabel.h

@interface UICustomLabel : UILabel

@end

File : UICustomLabel.m

@implementation UICustomLabel
- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame
{
    self = [super initWithFrame:frame];
    if (self) {
        // Initialization code
    }
    return self;
}
- (id)initWithCoder:(NSCoder *)coder {
    self = [super initWithCoder:coder];
    if (self) {

        // [UIFont fontWithName:@"AmericanTypewriter-Bold" size:self.font.pointSize]
        [self setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@“Font_Name" size:self.font.pointSize]];
    }
    return self;
}
@end

Then assign class UICustomLabel to each label in all storyboard you require to set as shown below.

This will work for you. Please let me know if you have any problem.
