Step 1: Download font file and Put it (.ttf or .otf file) in asset/font like this (you need to create font folder in assets):

enter image description here

Step 2: Add code in your if/else logic same as mentioned by @Decoy:

Typeface f = Typeface.createFromAsset(getContext().getAssets(),"font/Name_of_Font_File.ttf");
et.setTypeFace(f);

Use getContext().getAssets()

Typeface font = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(),"yourFont.ttf");
et.setTypeFace(font);

You can chanage the typeface of any view like this

yourView.setTypeface(Typeface.create("sans-serif-light", Typeface.NORMAL));
