Custom Fonts in tab X
Hello,
i am using a Tab X with the current firmware ( 2023-04-19_12-03_3.3.2_37262e9621 ) and I am trying to add some custom fonts for some better reading in some of my books. I found some straightforward information on how to add custom fonts ( create directory "fonts" and dd otf / ttf font files, restart ). However that does not work. Neither in "Notes"-app nor in the system settings. Has this feature been disabled by onyx? Thanks a lot |

In Android there are basically three kinds of fonts (a/k/a Typeface):
Worst case: If you are using Magisk you can insert fonts into /system/fonts and update /system/etc/fonts.xml if your app is 1/2. Does your app give you a choice of "NotoSansDevanagari"? Then it's a 1/2. Sorry, I don't use Onyx apps. Last edited by Renate; 10-21-2023 at 04:31 PM. |

They will be available in Neoreader and other reading apps. I don't think you can add system fonts.

I see lot of fonts in Notes from "AndroidClock Regular" to "Source Sans Pro SemiBold Italic" ( did not count ) in the "CJK" section and basically the same in the "English" section.
In Neoreader my custom fonts show up in the "English" section. |
