Fonts different on real device

[Gareth Murfin]

On the simulators my fonts look like this:

But on my real device they look like this:

Why is that?

Default fonts and their sizes vary by platform.  If you're laying out some labels with absolute positioning and you're not deriving your fonts to be specific pixel height, then you could get this.  I'd have to see some code to know why this is happening to you.  E.g.  what layout manager, styles, fonts, etc...

It is a strange case possibly because what I am doing is rendering a game to a 320x240 image, then scaling it up to the fullscreen size and displaying that (quite a weird way to make an old game work I guess but the easiest I can think of). Having said that I doubt this would affect fonts since the scaling is done right at the end. 

Edit, I just realised I have a copy of the graphics object, and wasnt callign set font on that, so now actually it is ok! weird how it would be different on device.

Here is how I make my fonts:
