I see a lot of references for ttf fonts in Android studio but none describe usage of otf type fonts. Is there a way to use otf type fonts as well for Android studio projects?

TTF is always been supported. OTF was later added at least in 1.6 and later, but partially.

Typeface face;

face = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "font.otf");

textview.setTypeface(face);
