I have bulky-multi paragraph TextView. Contents of the TextView is loaded from Strings.xml.

I would like to show show multiple paragraphs. When I use <P></P> tag in strings.xml it is not reflected, the TextView shows all the script as one single paragraph.

Is there a way to break the text into several paragraphs?

The contents of strings.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <string name="hello">Hello World, sirukathaikal!</string>
    <string name="app_name">Eelathu Sirukathaikal</string>

    When setting the text of the TextView, try using
    Typeface tf = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(),"fonts/kaviri.TTF");
    TextView tvBody = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.story_body);
    tvBody.setTypeface(tf);
    tvBody.setText(Html.fromHtml(getString(R.string.story_body))));
