create typeface from font resource id
This worked
Typeface typeface = ResourcesCompat.getFont(this, R.font.app_font);
Found this in the tutorial link by @Eselfar
If you want to create the TypeFace
from a font stored in assets folder,
you don´t need to define the directory, just the name of the font:
Typeface typeface = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(),"app_font.ttf");
You can create the Typeface using the resource id of the font stored into the /font
folder like this :
Typeface typeface = ResourcesCompat.getFont(this, R.font.app_font);
your font must be stored into the /font
directory
