INFO:
The FONTS in the MonoType apks on the market are digitally signed. This is what is preventing the use of any old font being added to an APK. The FlipFont app is looking for the digital signature in the font within the APK. If it is not there, it does not use the font and reverts to using the default font. So first you have to digitally sign your font and then you can edit APK file.
STEPS INVOLVED:
1. Signing Your Custom Font.
2. Editing APK (replacing monoglyceride font with your font).
FILES REQUIRED:
Monoglyceride Font & APK: Monoglyceride Font&APK
FontCreator: FontCreator.Professional.Edition.6.0
APK Manager: apk_manager_4.9
and of course a Samsung Device with FlipFont support…:D
SIGNING YOUR FONT:
Method I (Must Read)
1. Open the Monoglyceride.ttf font with FontCreator
2. Open the .ttf font you want to use.
3. Make note of the number of Glyphs at the bottom right side of FontCreator when you have your font selected.
4. Click the Monoglyceride font window in FontCreator and choose edit>select all at the top of the program.
5. Hit delete on your keyboard. This should delete everything in the Monoglyceride window.
6. click Insert>Glyphs… at the top of the program
7. type in the number of glyphs your font has in it and hit ok. You should now see a bunch of empty glyphs in the Monoglyceride window.
8. Now switch back to your font and again hit edit>select all
9. Hit edit>copy
10. Swith back to the Monoglyceride window and click edit>select all… and then edit>paste special…
11. This will open up the Paste Special window. Put a check in every box in Item section and choose "Add Mappings" in the mappings section and then click OK.
If this worked properly you should see all of the characters and mappings from your font in the Monoglyceride.ttf window.
12. Close your fonts window in FontCreator
13. Click File>Save as, rename the Monoglyceride.ttf with the name of your font.
Method II
- Web hosting server
- Free work from home
- Google work at home
The process is pretty similar to the original.
1. Start out in Font Creator by opening your two fonts.
2. In your new font, choose to "select all".
3. Go to Edit and then Copy
4. Switch over to the Monoglyceride font (or whatever you are using as the original font you will be making into the new font). Here, selct all glyphs as well.
5. Go to edit and the paste special, selecting all four Items and choosing "Overrule Same Mappings".
6. Hit ok and then save the file with your new font name.
This will place all of the new glyphs into the font you will be remaking while retaining all of the special characters from the original font.
Editing APK:
1. Install FontCreator.
2. Extract Apk_Manager_4.9.zip to some folder (here folder name “Apk_Manager_4.9”).
3. Copy the com.monotype.android.font.monoglyceride.apk into place-apk-here-for-modding folder in the Apk_Manager_4.9 directory.

10. Replace existing Monoglyceride.apk font with the .ttf font you edited (or signed) in FontCreator.
11. edit all XML, yml and smali files to include the font name or font.ttf depending on the entry in the original file. Just replace monoglyceride in these files and folder with the name of your font. Pay attention to capitalization in the existing files, and make sure to do the same when replacing with your file name.
12. Edit the last folder name in the smali folder tree from monoglyceride to the name of your font
