You have to put the hindi font, whichever you want to use in the asset folder of your project and from there you can use the font using css.
The detailed explanation is posted in this question

  • Thanks for your reply ,in assets folder we need to keep .ttf file ,in my question they have used some convertion for required language the above data is for tamil ,what i need exactly is how they are converting that and on which basis and what is that format. – user1285293 Apr 05 '12 at 05:19
  • You want it in Tamil or in Hindi? If you want it in Hindi, just put Hindi font in asset and use it in css. Same with Tamil. – 0xC0DED00D Apr 05 '12 at 05:33

You gonna have to use following CSS hack :) Make sure to use non-unicode font. Unicode fons fails in it. 

@font-face {
 font-family: MyCustomFont;
 src: url("file:///android_asset/Bamini.ttf") /* TTF file for CSS3 browsers */
}

and

body {
 font-family: MyCustomFont, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
 font-size: medium;
 color: black
}

Refer my opensource project @ GitHub for detail informaion.

You can find many online font converters. For example I have used Bamini font converter available at Suratha's site

Good luck.
