[Q] Can I add new display fonts?

[iCurmudgeon]

Can I add new fonts to the system, and if so, what kind (I'm assuming TrueType?) and which folder should they go into?

thanks in advance

The are two ways to do this:
1. Use system feature available in Settings/display/fonts
You can downloadd some font package from there (maybe even for free), or better yet, there is a thread with lots of installable font packages somewhere on xda, (try searching for "eigene flipfonts" or just "flipfonts"). No root required, just install the apk, and choose your new font from the settings.
2. Use one of the apps like "font installer", which will substitute system fonts in system/fonts folder with the ones of your choosing. Root required.
