Does Android support Windows fonts? and how to write Unicode text into a textview?

问题

Is it possible to use Windows fonts (.ttf file) in Android applications?

I have some unicode-8 texts like this:

جۆرەه

and I want to put it into a textView,, I tried some other methods but they did not work. Now, I want to embed a font into the application to read the text correctly..

By the way, it is Kurdish Language..

Any help is appreciated

Well, yes you can use .ttf files in Android Applications. Navigate to your Android project's src/main folder, make a new folder assets there and paste your .ttf file in it. You can place your font in the directory which supports your language. After that, you can use the font in an EditText like this:

// For Setting the typeface in the TextViews
    Typeface xyzTypeFace = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "xyz.ttf");
    TextView taglineTextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.taglineTextView);
    taglineTextView.setTextSize(25);
    taglineTextView.setTypeface(xyzTypeFace);

Thank you guys for your answers,

Finally, I solved the problem by using the following method..

    public static String fixEncodingUnicode(String response) {
    String str = "";
    try {
        str = new String(response.getBytes("ISO-8859-1"), "UTF-8");
    } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {

        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    String decodedStr = Html.fromHtml(str).toString();
    return  decodedStr;
}
