public static int dp2px(Context context, float dpVal){
return (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP,
dpVal, context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
}
webSettings.setDefaultFontSize(dp2px(context,20)/webview.getScale());
or:
webSettings.setDefaultFontSize(dp2px(context,20)*webview.getScale());

I understand one problem that is, in android 4.4 versions the text size is very small it size. But in android 5.0 or later it is working fine. Any solution for this? – user2767551 Nov 13 '15 at 08:07

I think is not about 4.4 or 5.0 , is about screenSize and dpi. – tiny sunlight Nov 13 '15 at 08:16

You should make you're font size a px (pixels) or dp (Density-independent pixels). Just use pixels, because it will always be 20 pixels on each screen and won't change. If you use dp, the screen size will vary on the density of pixels and the text size can change. So your code will look like this
webSettings.setDefaultFontSize(20px);
