I believe you can use [UIFont fontWithDescriptor:size] with a non-attributed 
string but if you want to mix font styles in a single string, then you need 
attributed.

It would appear that you need to apply this style to a character sequence of: a 
multi-digit number followed by a ‘/‘ then another multi-digit number.

Good luck!
