I'm trying to use fonts in my project using Typeface. I copied the "font.ttf" into a folder named "fonts" inside "assets" folder. But eclipse do not allow to compile it. It shows an error on fonts folder. What should I do?
The error I get is:
invalid resource directory name fonts /NoRats/assets line 1 Android AAPT Problem
You should put fonts inside this path
\app\src\main\assets\fonts
[Note : Create a new directory(Folder) inside the assests directory in the above patha i have created ]
Then put your ttf font file inside the fonts directory . You can set your font like this way :
Typeface anyName = Typeface.createFromAsset(Context,"fonts/yourFontFileName.ttf");
simpleTextView.setTypeface(anyName);
