I found the answer: Implemented onDraw ...

@Override public void onDraw(Canvas canvas) { super.onDraw(canvas); try{ onBufferDraw(); }catch(Exception ex){ } if (mBuffer!=null) canvas.drawBitmap(mBuffer, 0, 0, null); }

One solution is to use keboardView.java instead of android.inputmethodservice.KeyboardView .

You also need to change paint.setTypeface(Typeface.DEFAULT_BOLD) to paint.setTypeface(my font) and you need to add attrs.xml to your project.

if you are considering changing the font style font style of custom Android keyboards using the external .ttf font style, you can check my answer by the answer link to change the font style of the keyboard shortcut of the Android user keyboard as well as change the font style throughout the Android application.

Well that is a very broad question. I can tell you how to install a different font; how you work, which in your keyboard app is up to you.

Place the font (.ttf or .otf) in your resources folder and use the following code (assuming a font called "myfont.ttf" and a TextView with the identifier "key"):

 Typeface myFont = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "myfont.ttf"); TextView key = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.key); key.setTypeface(myFont);

Reminder: Remember to check the license of the font you are using. Most of them do not allow redistribution without compensation. One freely licensed font you can use is Bitstream Vera Sans.
