Help identifying font created when I paste text from notes app into Microsoft Word

Hi there,

When I paste text from the notes app to Microsoft Word, it shows up in a different font. This is completely fine; however, when I try to identify the font in Word’s ‘fonts’ bar, it only shows up as ‘UICTFontTextStyle’ and I cannot change other text in Word to this font as it doesn’t show up in the list of options. This is a problem as I really like this font and I want to use it without having to paste from notes. Would anyone be able to help me identify this font?

Attached is a screenshot of this font in case anyone recognises it.


Thank you for your help

iPad, iPadOS 16
