Drawing text on canvas with WINGDING.ttf font is not working on android

问题

When I am drawing Text with custom font(basically icon ex: WINGDING.ttf) using drawText is showing simple text as provided.

Steps I followed: 1. Added font file to Assets folder 2. Set paint with the added font 3. drawing text with the paint

To draw text I used the corresponding English character

canvas.drawText("p",0,1, x, y, myPaint);

This displays as p on app

回答1:

use this way if you have assets/fonts:

    private Paint    myPaint= new Paint(Paint.ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG);  
    private Typeface mFace; 
    mFace = Typeface.createFromAsset(getContext().getAssets(),"fonts/WINGDING.ttf");  
    myPaint.setTextSize(32);
    myPaint.setTypeface(mFace);
    canvas.drawText("test test",0,1, x, y, myPaint);
  //canvas.drawText("test test", 10, 200, myPaint);

example:

private static class MyView extends View   
    {  
private Paint    mPaint = new Paint(Paint.ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG);  
private Typeface mFace;  
public MyView(Context context)   
{  
super(context);   
mFace = Typeface.createFromAsset(getContext().getAssets(),"fonts/WINGDING.ttf");  
mPaint.setTextSize(32);  
}  
 @Override protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas)   
{   
mPaint.setTypeface(mFace);  
canvas.drawText("p p p p", 10, 200, mPaint);  
}  
}

I found this SO post that linked this font converter, http://www.freefontconverter.com.

I took my .ttf font that would not render and converted it to .ttf again (so .ttf to .ttf) and now it works! I hope this helps!
