Add external font to the CAPI application

Post by Mariovaisman »

Hi,

I have to develop an application that has to work in two languages, one is english, and the other is a local language with a different font. In windows I know how to manage it, however this application needs to work in android devices.
My question is how I can manage an external font which is not part of the standard font that the device has.

Thanks

Mario

It should be possible to install fonts on Android following the directions here: http://www.androidauthority.com/how-to- ... one-32078/

I haven't actually tried it. Le us know if it works.
