Does android in eclipse emulator support hindi fonts? I see Square boxes like ☐ instead of characters अ आ इ ई उ ऊ on Emulator and on Unicode or UTF8 compliant Hindi websites. Any settings for solving the issue?
This might help you
use custom TrueType fonts by copying the .ttf file into your projects's 'assets' folder.
Then in your application you can use the font like this;
final Typeface customF = Typeface.createFromAsset(this.getAssets(), "custom.ttf");
final TextView textV = (TextView) findViewById(...);
textV.setTypeface(customF);
