Use custom fonts

In order to use custom fonts in some Views, we need to import the font files to the folder /assets/font/ and apply the typeface to the View (not all views support it, some examples are TextView, Button, RadioButton, and so on). Here an easy example using Arial.ttf.

+ assets
  + font
    - Arial.ttf

// YourActivity.java

Typeface fontResource = Typeface.createFromAsset(
  context.getAssets(), "font/Arial.ttf");

TextView textView = (TextView) this.findViewById(R.id.tv1);
textView.setTypeface(fontResource);
