I can’t get custom fonts to work for the life of me either. I’ve double checked all of my naming conventions. The Buildsettings are correct to the file name and the text object parameter is specifying the actual name according to getNativeFonts(), so I am at a loss as well. Very frustrated. Now I know why so many corona devs aren’t using cool fonts in their apps unless they’re rasterized.

argh. [import]uid: 10361 topic_id: 8722 reply_id: 31835[/import]

Just got the new version of Windows Android and tried new build hoping it would sole font issue but no luck.
Fonts do not show
Any proper docs on the Ansca with demo code
