Add new fonts to AIReader?

Iwfcyb · 02-04-2023, 03:45 PM

So I'm finally getting around to trying some new readers, and I've had mixed results so far. However, I'm really liking AIReader, except that unlike every other app, I can't seem to figure out where to manually add my .ttf files to expand the font options. I attached a screenshots of the file tree inside AIReader, and I've combed through it with a fine toothed comb, including hidden files. No luck. I'm guessing it pulls fonts from some other directory in the phone, but I can't find out for the life of me where.

Anyone had any success is getting this to work?

Thanks

This works for me:

Create a folder at the base of your internal memory called "fonts"--all lower-case--if it doesn't exist.
Put any desired fonts in it,
Force close Alreader (go to the "App" settings to do this)
Open Alreader again. The fonts in the "fonts" folder should be available in Alreader.

Well holy crap that was easy. Once I took the 20 seconds it took to do that, I started to wonder why I couldn't find info that simple online no matter how hard I looked. Then I realized almost nobody reads books anymore.... If I would have been looking to fix a problem related to Netflix, I probably would have had 419,854 hits on my first search. Lol

Thanks man! That did it. Appreciate the help.
