Why is my font rendering incorrectly on Android

graeme_laws · 2017-05-03T11:40:29.000Z

HI,

I have an app out on the play store, which during test exhibited no problems with the fonts, however we’ve had a report and screenshot of a user with an Android device not rendering the font correctly.

The text that renders correctly there is a bitmap image, the coloured rectangles are the font displaying incorrectly.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Graeme.

I had such cases also on older devices and no idea what caused this.

However, as a workaround you could try to switch all your texts to TextmeshPro (requires unity 5.6).

I know that I’m not helping @graeme_laws because he probably has solved his problem long time ago, but just in case someone will be looking for solution of this problem.

Checking on “Incl. Font Data” was solution in my case.

Hi any success on this. We are still facing this issue. Again this is not consistent issue and when a person reopens the app its fine.

@obywan we have added Incl Font data, but still this issue continues to happen.
