I want to create a database in which i can add and retrieve the Urdu
words. for this purpose i installed Inpage 2009 professional and
copied its fonts (.ttf) into assets folder but it gave an error i.e
I also installed UrduFonts.exe and copied its font
JameelNooriNastaleeq.ttf but it also gave the same error. i need the
Urdu font that is compatible to the android , the font that can add
and retrieve Urdu to and from the database using android.
this is how i coded foa a Lcd2Mono.ttf and i am having the true
experience of that font but i am unsuccessful. here is my piece of
code..

private EditText txt,start,urdu;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
urdu=(EditText) findViewById(R.id.urdu);
try
{

urdu.setTypeface(Typeface.createFromAsset(this.getAssets(),"urdu.ttf"));
urdu.setText("ur text");
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
start.setText(ex.toString());
}

i did some with Impage Fonts and got Exception that Native Font.....
