Changing Android app fonts? [answered]
The default Japanese font looks ugly and I've managed to change it (forgot exactly what I did), but the change isn't reflected in Android apps, which is where I really need it.
What determines which fonts are used by Android apps? One of the Android apps has an option to choose fonts and my new fonts aren't on that list (even though the OS uses them...).
Edit: could it be because of the system locale or something? If it's set to Chinese and the font renderer uses that information to render them then they would show up incorrectly. In that case, how could you change it?
edit: tl;dr this and my answer below: why do Android apps default to the fallback font (DoidSansFallback.ttf)? This applies at least for Chinese/Japanese/Korean text.
