I'm making my first Android application and I want to add a custom font for a certain TextView. So I read about Typeface declaration and other people problem in some of the topics here and here . I create my own folder Fonts in assets and adding my font.tff there. Here is some code that I have just wrote:

textField = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.threeMinutesTimer);
Typeface face;
face = createFromAsset(getAssets(), "Fonts/GAELLEnumber8.tff");
textField.setTypeface(face);

When I start my application I'm receiving an RuntimeException : native typeface cannot be made. Help.

**tff**? don't you mean **ttf** (TrueType Font)? Check out this answer: http://stackoverflow.com/a/8760782/2649012 – Phantômaxx Jun 23 '14 at 11:35
Fonts dir is exist in your asset folder ? – Lavekush Agrawal Jun 23 '14 at 11:36
wrong spelled....must be ttf, not tff. I think that´s the reason why.. – Opiatefuchs Jun 23 '14 at 11:37

By the way, your "here" and "here" links are pointing to the same question – Phantômaxx Jun 23 '14 at 11:38
