Answer 1

You can download the font type and add it to the items you need

Select File / New Folder / Assets Folder

Right click on assets and create a folder called fonts

Put your font file in assets > fonts

Use this

    TextView myTextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView);
    Typeface typeface = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/yourfont.ttf");
    myTextView.setTypeface(typeface);

Answer 2

You can set shadow for your textview using attributes below.

android:shadowColor="@color/black"
android:shadowDx="1"
android:shadowDy="1"
android:shadowRadius="2"
