Using Custom Font for Android Studio Editor

I installed my favorite programming editor font - Inconsolata - on my Macbook Pro, but I can't seem to get it working in Android Studio. I've confirmed that the font works correctly on eclipse, so it is definitely installed correctly.

In the Android Studio options, it just shows a bunch of strange boxed A characters. If I select the font, my entire editor becomes boxed A characters.

Anyone know how to make this font work in Android Studio?

What Inconsolata looks like in Android Studio options.

The most simplest way to change font in Android studio editor is given below:

Step 1: Go to directory C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jre\jre\lib\fonts

Step 2: Paste the font with.ttf extension i.e.,(True Type Font) file of your custom font.

Step 3: Open Android Studio and set the font through Settings/General/Font in the File Menu. But, make sure that you have to re-open the Android Studio if already open.

I got Inconsolata working by unselecting "Show only monospaced fonts." Before that, Inconsolata wasn't even showing up. I'm using Windows, but it might work for you.
