Create a font or font like set by choosing glyphs, transforming them, and putting the result into a structure?

My basic need is that I have unicode symbols which compose to a marked musical note. I'd like that note to be rotated upside down. Obviously, I could do this by sticking each into a View of some sort, and applying rotation effect. Indeed, I've done this for the part of my app where these notes are the labels of Buttons.

However, the results of pressing the buttons need to be displayed, and on most of my app, this is a simple String.

However, I can find no way to rotate individual glyphs of a String. And I'm not keen to write a compositor to layout View like glyphs in a String.

Is there a way to make a font by finding individual glyphs, doing the transform, and packaging them into a new specialized font, without needed to use an external Font making application?

Instead of rotating the symbol with code, use a symbol that is already the correct rotation.

One way you can do this is by creating your own custom SF symbol.

Rotated by how much? 27.6238 degrees? Or flipped?

If you just need them flipped, you could create images or perhaps custom SF symbols and display them inline in a rich text view.
