Need to embed Arial Bold on Android?
« on: February 21, 2014, 06:20:32 AM »
Hi, I'm wondering if I need to embed fonts like Arial Bold in my app on android. Because when I using this font on an UILabel its not looking right on Android (looks like a fallback font). On an iPad everything looks fine and Arial Normal looks fine at both devices as well. Any suggestions?

Sounds like a question for Unity. Generally if something like that works on one platform but doesn't work on another, then it's something with Unity.

Ok, skipped this problem for a while, but found a solution. I imported the ttf files (Arial, Arial Bold) into the project but I haven't connected them to the textfields. If you select the imported font instead using the default embedded Arial then its working fine on IOS and Android.
