Some of fonts from pc not visible in android studio editor's setting

Viewed 954

My operating system is windows. So in my PC there is one font called 'Ayuthaya.ttf' (that's not windows default font).

enter image description here

I want to use this font in android studio. But in font list from android studio settings I can't find that font.

But in IntelliJ's settings the font is visible. So how can I fix it?

This might be a little too late but in case someone encounters a similar problem.


If you are running Windows Build 1809 then a possible solution would be:

  1. Delete your currently installed font.
  2. Select the font or fonts (regular, light, etc...).
  3. Right-click & select "Install for all users".
  4. Restart Android Studio.


This happens because since build 1809 fonts are installed to:

C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Fonts

while before build 1809 they were installed to:

C:\Windows\Fonts

Okay so I've actually had this issue in the past, this kind of issue usually happens when you change the default font on Windows. For example, I changed my default windows font to "San Francisco" by Apple and it literally made everything on Android Studio unreadable.

To fix the issue, just change the default font on Windows. If you're having trouble changing the font then I can provide you with a script to change the font.
