Add fonts to android application

Here I am going to explain how to add an external font style to android application programmatically.

Step 1).Download the font type from here.
Step 2).Create a folder "fonts" inside the "assests" folder.
Step 3).Import The jar file into the folder "fonts".

Step 4).Open the fonts.xml file and create Textview.


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
< LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    android:layout_width="fill_parent"

    android:layout_height="fill_parent"

    android:orientation="vertical"

    android:background="#000000" >

    <TextView

        android:id="@+id/newfont"

        android:layout_width="fill_parent"

        android:layout_height="fill_parent"

        android:textSize="50dip"

        android:gravity="center"

        android:textColor="#ffffff"

        android:layout_marginTop="60dip"

        android:text="NewFont" />

</LinearLayout>




Step 4).Fonts.java

package com.example.androidhive;

import android.app.Activity;

import android.graphics.Typeface;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.widget.TextView;

public class Fonts extends Activity 

{

TextView newFont;

    @Override

    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.main);

  String Path= "";//Type your path

   newFont=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.newfont);

      Typeface T = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), Path);

   newFont.setTypeface(T);

       

       

    }

}




Happy Coding :)....
