Change FontFace of application

Question

I have one application in Which I want to change font of text in whole application.
Is there anyway to change font of application Programmatically or with xml in manifest.?

Answer 1

The easiest way to do it is creating your own TextView:

public class MyTextView extends TextView {

    public DMTextView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
      super(context, attrs);
      // you need your TypefaceFile "myTypeface.ttf" in the assets folder of your project
      setTypeface(Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(),"myTypeface.ttf"));
    }

    // add the other constructors if you want
}

now, you can use it anywhere in your xml: <com.your.package.MyTextView ... > just like normal textviews

It might be improved by caching the Typeface, so you don't have to create it again with every Reference to your TextView.

Answer 2

Try this

1.place your ttf file in assets folder and add these lines to your java file

Typeface font = Typeface.createFromAsset(activity.getAssets(),"fonts/androidnation.ttf");

tv.setTypeface(font);

2.To set it through xml

XML Typeface

Answer 3

Place you fonts in fonts folder and then use the following code.

TextView tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.appname);
Typeface face = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(),"fonts/epimodem.ttf");
tv.setTypeface(face);

This is the way to set font programmatically.

Answer 4

Create fonts folder in asset and paste the fonts whatever you want to paste.

Create one class. Name it Typesafe.java

public enum TypeSafe {
   HELVETICANEUELTCOMBD,
   HELVETICANEUELTCOMBDCN,
   HELVETICANEUELTCOMCN,
}

After that create one method in your Activity or if you have the Utility class.

public void setTypeface(TextView textView, TypeSafe type, AssetManager assetManager){
    if (TypeSafe.HELVETICANEUELTCOMBD.equals(type)) {
        final Typeface typeface = Typeface.createFromAsset(assetManager, "fonts/HelveticaNeueLTCom-Bd.ttf");
        textView.setTypeface(typeface);
    } else if (TypeSafe.HELVETICANEUELTCOMBDCN.equals(type)) {
        final Typeface typeface1 = Typeface.createFromAsset(assetManager, "fonts/HelveticaNeueLTCom-BdCn.ttf");
        textView.setTypeface(typeface1);
    } 
}

Call these method in your activity.

setTypeface(yourtextView, TypeSafe.HELVETICANEUELTCOMLT, getAssets());
