We at bangalore android developers group had done this for one of our project AutoMeter You can have a look at the code there in detail.

The code would look something like this

Typeface myTypeface = Typeface.createFromAsset(this.getAssets(),"DS-DIGIB.TTF");
waitingTimeView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.WaitingTime);
waitingTimeView.setTypeface(myTypeface);

DS-DIGIB.TTF is the font put in the assets folder
