Call all textviews in your Java File and set typefaces,



package com.example.accessfromassets;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.graphics.Typeface;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
 
       

      //findId from xml file 
       
  TextView tv=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView1);
  TextView tv1=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView2);
  TextView tv2=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView3);
  TextView tv3=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView4);
  TextView tv4=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView5);
  TextView tv5=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.tv);

  //getting .ttf files from assets
 
 Typeface amelia = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "Amelia.ttf"); 
 Typeface Airacobralight = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "Airacobra Light.ttf");
 Typeface Amalgam = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "Amalgam.ttf"); 
 Typeface AiracobraAlt = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "Airacobra Alt.ttf");
 Typeface DroidSans = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "DroidSans.ttf");
 Typeface DroidSerifBoldItalic = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "DroidSerif-BoldItalic.ttf");



 //set typefaces to the textviews

 tv.setTypeface(amelia);
 tv1.setTypeface(Airacobralight);
 tv2.setTypeface(Amalgam);
 tv3.setTypeface(AiracobraAlt);
 tv4.setTypeface(DroidSans);
 tv5.setTypeface(DroidSerifBoldItalic);
