to get custom font in Webview we need to specify url as follows ,we need to put the fonts in assets folder ,and webview check in files folder of application, ie it's like file:/data/data/packgname/files

"<html><body><span style=\"font-size : 12pt;color : #333333;font-family: verdana; src: url('file://"+ context.getFilesDir().getAbsolutePath()+ "/verdana.ttf');\" >"+data+"</span></body></html>"
