Font "HelveticaNeue.ttf" deviation in android lollipop

I am using "HelveticaNeue.ttf" as a custom font in my android application; with all the previous versions of android it was fine, but with lollipop it stretches than normal font, does anyone have a solution?

I had the same problem and it worked for me.

Good luck!

I had the same problem - my ttf fonts were serving / stretching on a Nexus 5 running Lollipop.

This is caused by a problem with the ttf, in particular an invalid idRangeOffset value that occurred during the creation of the ttf, presumably.



I fixed the issue by referring back to the original font from the designers and recreating the ttf using onlinefontconverter.com.
