Please specify font-family as you normally would in standard HTML & CSS, and include specified-fonts="true" in the Apple Display Options file in the META-INF folder. Something like this should do the trick: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <display_options> <platform name="*"> <option name="specified-fonts">true</option> </platform> </display_options> No <abbr> abuse necessary.
