	I applied a custom font to a TextView, but it doesn't seems to change the typeface. Here is my code: Typeface myTypeface = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/myFont.ttf"); TextView myTextView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.myTextView); myTextView.setTypeface(myTypeface); Can anyone please get me out of this issue? edited Jun 26 '12 at 8:46 asked Sep 6 '10 at 11:33

benvd is right. Don't use a fonts subdirectory. On Mobiletuts+ there is very good tutorial on Text formatting for Android. Quick Tip: Customize Android Fonts EDIT: Tested it myself now. Here is the solution. You can use a subfolder called fonts but it must go in the assets folder not the res folder. So assets/fonts Also make sure that the font ending I mean the ending of the font file itself is all lower case. In other words it should not be myFont.TTF but myFont.ttf edited Jan 22 '12 at 17:46 answered Sep 6 '10 at 11:45 Octavian Damiean 16.5k105070

	I've successfully used this before. The only difference between our implementations is that I wasn't using a subfolder in assets. Not sure if that will change anything, though. answered Sep 6 '10 at 11:35
