Question

I am having difficulty to show a complete word of urdu..my code is showing urdu text letter by letter in my android emulator. kindly guide me how to read Urdu. I have already set the URDU Font.thanks

Answer 1

Get a font file like “urdu.ttf”
Drop it in your asset folder, inside a “fonts” folder
Get a reference of TextView with something like that :

TextView tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.myCustomTVFont);

Grab you font from the asset folder :

Typeface tf = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/urdu.ttf");

Make your TextView look great :

tv.setTypeface(tf);
