I'm trying to install a new font for my emulator. Currently android doesn't support "Tamil" but rooted phones do have partial support with extra hic ups.
I wanna try and install a tamil font in my emulator. so I went to font directory under android sdk folder and replaced it with a Tamil unicode font latha.ttf
when I create a emulator for dat specfic version and runs it, I still see boxes instead of Tamil script??
wot am I missing?? can someone help me out.
Thanks in advance.

The emulator has nothing to do with this directory.

Of course. You have not put the Tamil font in your emulator.
wot am I missing??
If you find instructions for installing a Tamil font in a rooted phone, follow those instructions with your emulator.

Whenever android fails to find a specific character it looks to DroidSansFallback.ttf, so what you need to do is replace the DroidSansFallback.ttf of the emulator by renaming a ttf font of your required language to DroidSansFallback.ttf.
