thank you, I downloaded it, too many files along with ttf file, what to do?
if you use the "font changer" app, there will be a folder in your sdcard named ".fontchanger", you just put the 2 files there(e.g. Zegoe.ttf and Zegoe-Bold.ttf), then once you open the actual fontchanger app it will be there as one of the choices, just click it then apply and reboot
alternatively, you can just use root explorer to overwrite the 2 files in /system/fonts:
- first, rename your desired font to DroidSans.ttf(for regular) and DroidSans-Bold.ttf(for the bold)
- put the 2 files in system/fonts overwriting the original files then set permissions to rw-r-r then reboot
*those two files are all you need, the normal and the bold .ttf

Font help please

I'm trying to install the Nokia SANS font my galaxy s2
ive downloaded font changer, and copied the font into the relevant folder
i can see the font but when I select it and reboot it fails to change
where can i copy this font for it to appear in
display, screen display fonts so I can try it that way?
Any other suggestions?
The font I have is a single file with the file format .ttf
Just extract the fonts, save it to your sdcard, and replace the one in the system/fonts using rooxplorer. Then reboot Make sure the "default" font is checked.

There is some flipfonts floating around that will let you install an apk and select it in the font chooser
A quick search turned up this one right away. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18948909&postcount=708
Just search flipfont roboto and Im sure you'll find more if there's issues with that one.
Ultimately you can grab the font from a ics rom from system/fonts and push them to your phone if you're looking for something more permanent

If you drop the font in system/fonts then it's not going to show up.
If you want to use it in system/fonts you're going to need the fonts from ICS, the clock, regular and bold fonts. They cannot be named roboto.ttf as they need to write over the current fonts.
Alternately you can install a flip font apk, then you will be able to select it from the font chooser.

[Q] Does anyone know where font files are saved?

I've downloaded a custom font that I want to try out on my tablet, but I don't know where to move the ttf file.
