Custom fonts

The TeX Gyre Heros font family — a close alternative to Helvetica — provides the necessary small-caps variant to properly render Lord.

As the TeX Gyre Heros OpenType fonts did not appear to encode their specific style and weight traits, I re-encoded them with the Glyphs font editor. This enabled switching between the Regular, Bold, Italic, and Bold Italic custom fonts via [UIFont fontWithDescriptor:...], and also cleared up a font metrics issue affecting the baseline position and lineHeight.

The original fonts can be found at GUST.
