First of all, you can’t import fonts to CSS that way. You can add this code in HTML head: <link href=”http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Oswald:400,300,700″ rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css”> or to import it in CSS file like this: @import url(“http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Oswald:400,300,700”); Then, in your css, you can edit the body’s font-family: body { font-family: ‘Oswald’, sans-serif !important; }

Short answer: No. Android doesn’t have built-in support for applying custom fonts to text widgets through XML. However, there’s a workaround that’s not terribly difficult to implement. First You’ll need to define your own stylable. In your /res/values folder, open/create the attrs.xml file and add a declare-styleable object like so: <?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”utf-8″?> <resources> <declare-styleable … Read more

Glyphicons are images and not a font. All the icons are found within a sprite image (also available as individual images) and they are added to the elements as positioned backround-images: Actual font icons (FontAwesome, for instance) do involve downloading a specific font and make use of the content property, for instance: @font-face { … … Read more
