RuntimeException: Font asset not found optimale_bold.ttf

Question

Here is the error line:

Typeface typeface = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "optimale_bold.tff");

Here is the error log cat:

Here is the structure of assets folder:
in main directory:

|-assets
|--optimale_bold.ttf
|-java
|-res
AndrodMainifest.xml

in Android view of AndroidStudio:

|-app
|--manifest
|--java
|--res
|--assets
|---optimale_bold.tff

I carefully checked the app.iml file, such a line is included:

<option name="ASSETS_FOLDER_RELATIVE_PATH" value="/src/main/assets" />

What might be wrong?

PS: I checked this post, and tried every solution. But none works. This is not a duplicate post. Please help solve the problem.

To those who might need:

compileSdkVersion 23
buildToolsVersion "23.0.1"

defaultConfig {
    applicationId "blahblah"
    minSdkVersion 11
    targetSdkVersion 23
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"
}

Answer 1

I think you have some misspelling error. Your font extension should be .ttf, and not .tff

Answer 2

It is a good practice to add fonts folder inside assets and then use this line,

Typeface face1= Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/optimale_bold.tff");

Also to make sure that the assets folder sits in the same level as java and res.
