Using custom fonts

[noties]

Hey!

Of cause it's possible! You can change font as usual (applying it for a TextView directly)

@noties hey. What i do wrong ?
I create TextView, render markdown to it Markwon.setMarkdown(textView,markdownStr);,
create typeface from asset Typeface typeface = Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(), "myfont.ttf"); and apply it textView.setTypeface(typeface);, but typeface don't changes.

Most likely there is some issue with loading your custom typeface.

• make sure that your custom typeface file is located in root of assets (not raw) folder (it can be in a nested folder, but then you have to specify it like: Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/myfont.ttf")
• make sure that you have specified file name correctly
• make sure that it's valid typeface (maybe it's corrupted or something)

I have just checked setting custom typeface in the sample application and it works as expected (Noto Serif):

@noties can you show the code of sample ? Because Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(), "myfont.ttf"); works normal and return work typeface, i use him in config SpannableTheme.builder().codeTypeface(typeface) to MarkwonView, and in MarkwonView some parts of text renders with this font. But only some parts.

Oh... this is problem in my code. Typeface is not setting in TextView. Sorry, its my problem. Thx, super library.

Is it possible to add different custom fonts depending on which type you are?
For example.

Header - Use Font Gelica
Regular - Use Font Helvetica

Alright, I've figure it out. It's actually using AbstractMarkwonPlugin.configureTheme to set the headingTypeface.
Then, I just use the conventional TextField.style from Android SDK to set it for the rest.

Not ideal, but workable.

val markwon = Markwon.builder(requireContext())
      .usePlugin(object : AbstractMarkwonPlugin() {
          override fun configureTheme(builder: MarkwonTheme.Builder) {
              val gelicaTypeface = ResourcesCompat.getFont(requireContext(), R.font.gelica_regular)
              val maisonTypeface = ResourcesCompat.getFont(requireContext(), R.font.maison_neue)
            
              builder.headingTypeface(gelicaTypeface)
          }
      }).build()
