What is Core Text?
Core Text is an advanced, low-level text layout and rendering engine available on macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS. It provides fine-grained control over glyph placement, font handling, and text styling. Developers use Core Text for tasks like creating custom text editors, rendering complex scripts and languages, implementing advanced typography features, and achieving high-performance text rendering in graphics-intensive applications.
