Best way to assign font typeface to textview

Question

I wonder what would be the best way to assign a font typeface to a TextView view? Is it better to create a custom TextView class which extends TextView or use setTypeFace attribute?

Answer 1

create folder assets(src/main/assets/ in AndroidStudio) and make a sub-folder fonts , copy your fonts in them

 Typeface tf = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(),
    "fonts/youi.ttf");
 TextView tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.edit_t);
 tv.setTypeface(tf);
