I'd like to do is get a condensed - or better yet - a bold (semi-bold) condensed version of the "San Francisco" system font.

What I propose to do is get a "starter" font:

  let font = UIFont.preferredFontForTextStyle(UIFontTextStyleHeadline)

then get the font descriptor:

  let fd1 = font.fontDescriptor()

then add a "condensed" attribute:

  let fd2 = fd1.fontDescriptorByAddingAttributes[ the magic sauce ]

  let finalFont = UIFont(descriptor: fd2, size: 0)

My only problem is I don't know the "magic sauce", and there is a darth of information on fontDescriptorByAddingAttributes (google it yourself).

I sure would appreciate anyone who can tell me, or point me in the right direction, so I can find the "magic sauce" formula.
