I'm looking for the actual .ttf file (the directory it is stored in) using root explorer. Anyone else happen to know?

yes,you can use every font in ttf file format.just rename it to "DroidSans" and to "DroidSans-Bold" and replace the corresponding files in system/fonts using rootexplorer or just create an update.zip containing the renamed fonts in the corresponding folder structure.
Wow, thank you so much paul! This was easy, and works like a gem.. just rebooted, looks wonderful. Thank you my friend

but flipfonts only replace DroidSans (default font) and not the default bold one (DroidSans-Bold) shown in the lockscreen (clock),in the keypad when entering pin,in the title bars,etc..
Not sure if they came with Darkys rom ir not but under Setting-Display-Font Style I can choose any one of about 40 fonts. And they change all phone fonts including lockscreen, notications etc.
Edit: You are correct pauldiddy. Although most fonts change the bold ones don't.

Yes, that's just because Darky packed a bunch of fonts into the ROM.
I haven't asked a thing for a long time so here we go!
I tried replacing the Android 4.1.2 lockscreen clock font with the new font found in Android 4.2.
I replaced AndroidClock.ttf but as you can see the date gets moved down but the font stays unchanged.
Any help maaaaaybe?
Hello,
You have to replace three different font files to change the lockscreen font. This will also change the
digital clock widget if the ROM your running has it baked in. Below are the font files you need to replace
and each file is the exact same...just named differently.
AndroidClock.ttf
AndroidClock_Highlight.ttf
AndroidClock_Solid.ttf
Enjoy!

you can add them to the "pictures" or "downloads" folder or make a new subfolder titled "wallpaper" under "pictures" if you want
OK thanks.
I thought there was something you had to edit in system/framework/

I don't know how to add them to the "wallpaper chooser" but functionally it's easy to add them from a downloads or pics folder.

To add to the wallpaper chooser, you have to go to system/app take the wallpaper apk out (this could vary depending on the ROM) and open it with zip or extract with an apk manager. Then switch the jpg's out with your own.

I was wondering if anyone knew how to manually add fonts to the galaxy S3 jellybean tw rom. By manually I mean using root explorer and putting files in a particular folder if that can be done. I don't want to buy a font app that just does a transfer I can do myself. Please and thank you

You can, you would just need to put the correct file in the systems font folder.
The fonts in that folder don't appear in the touchwiz font selection screen under display settings->font

I see then; well honestly, you're better off just downloading an app to do it; as you're have to change everything in the system ui to that new ont. There are TONS of free root font changer apps. Have a go at them.

I would like to learn the areas of the ui I can edit to get that effect. I'm on XDA to learn anyway. I just finished a semester of C++ in my pursuit of an electrical engineering degree so I'm more interested in the journey than the effect anyway

You can install fonts manually in the system/fonts folder but it takes time... you need to find a font that has all the different font "states" (light, bold, italic, condensed/ all combinations of these) and should be in .ttf format
So here's what you need to do:
1.Make a nandroid !FIRST!
2.Download your font
3.Use a root browser and find system/fonts
4.Locate the main fonts the system uses (ICS&JB use roboto)
5.Write down all the font state names that begin with roboto (ie roboto-italic)
6.Rename the font states from your downloaded font to the corresponding roboto font states (font-italic to roboto-italic)
7.Paste all renamed font states in system/fonts
8.Set permissions for each pasted font state
9.Boot into recovery and wipe cache/dalvik & set permissions
10.Reboot and enjoy!

Just Google search for flip fonts. There are tons of free ones on the internet. They install like apks.

droidsanschinese.ttf is the name of the "system" font inside the .zip/.hwt files no matter what the font actually is. The OS uses the font called droidsanschinese.ttf, no matter what.
On Samsung it's "Roboto.
