Is it possible to set a custom font for entire of application?

Question

I need to use certain font for my entire application. I have .ttf file for the same. Is it possible to set this as default font, at application start up and then use it else

Answer 1

Yes, its possible to set the font to the entire application.

The easiest way to accomplish this is to package the desired font(s) with your application.

To do this, simply create an assets/ folder in the project root, and put your fonts (in TrueType, or TTF, form) in the assets.

You might, for example, create assets/fonts/ and put your TTF files in there.

public class FontSampler extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
super.onCreate(icicle);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
TextView tv=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.custom);

Typeface face=Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/HandmadeTypewriter.ttf");
tv.setTypeface(face);
}
}
