Not able to locate the font downloaded from internet

Question

I downloaded a font for Hindi Language (k010.ttf). I have a menu for the game. In that I have a button (Language Change). On click of that button the fonts of language should change from English to Hindi.

I wrote this script:

using UnityEngine; using System.Collections; using UnityEngine.UI;

public class LangChng : MonoBehaviour {

 //public Font myNewFont;

 public GameObject go1;
 public GameObject go1b1;
 public GameObject go1b2;
 public GameObject go1b3;
 public GameObject go1b4;
 public GameObject go1b5;

 public GameObject go2;
 public GameObject go2b1;
 public GameObject go2b2;
 public GameObject go2b3;
 public GameObject go2b4;

 public GameObject go3;
 public GameObject go3b1;
 public GameObject go3b2;
 public GameObject go3b3;
 public GameObject go3b4;
 public GameObject go3b5;
 public GameObject go3b6;
 public GameObject go3b7;

 public GameObject go4;
 public GameObject go4b1;

 public GameObject go5b1;
 public GameObject go5b2;
 public GameObject go5b3;
 //public Button but;

 // Use this for initialization

 public void onClick ()
 {
     go1.SetActive (true);
     //go1.SetActive (true);
     go1b1.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Vs CPU...";
     go1b2.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Vs Player...";
     go1b3.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "High Score...";
     go1b4.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Options...";
     go1b5.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Exit...";
     //go1.SetActive(false);
     go1.SetActive(false);

     go2.SetActive (true);
     //go1.SetActive (true);
     go2b1.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Back...";
     go2b2.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Slow...";
     go2b3.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Rock...";
     go2b4.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Pop...";
     //go1.SetActive(false);
     go2.SetActive(false);

     go3.SetActive (true);
     //go1.SetActive (true);
     go3b1.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Help...";
     go3b2.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Credits...";
     go3b3.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "About...";
     go3b4.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Sound...";
     go3b5.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Music...";
     go3b6.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Language...";
     go3b7.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Back...";
     //go1.SetActive(false);
     go3.SetActive(false);

     go4.SetActive (true);
     //go1.SetActive (true);
     go4b1.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Back...";
     //go1.SetActive(false);
     go4.SetActive(false);


     go5b1.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "English...";

     go5b2.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().font = Resources.GetBuiltinResource(typeof(Font), "k010.ttf") as Font;
     //go5b2.GetComponent<Text>().font = Resources.GetBuiltinResource<Font>("k010.ttf");
     //go5b2.GetComponent<Text>().font = myNewFont;
     go5b2.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "asd";

     go5b3.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = "Back...";
 }

}

I downloaded the font file and put it in the Assets folder. However the code is not running and giving the error:

Failed to find k010.ttf UnityEngine.Resources:GetBuiltinResource(Type, String) LangChng:onClick() (at Assets/Scripts/LangChng.cs:83) UnityEngine.EventSystems.EventSystem:Update()

The resource k010.ttf could not be loaded from the resource file! UnityEngine.Resources:GetBuiltinResource(Type, String) LangChng:onClick() (at Assets/Scripts/LangChng.cs:83) UnityEngine.EventSystems.EventSystem:Update()

@muddu

You are calling "Resources.GetBuiltinResource". Two problems here

"k010.ttf" is not a Unity built in resource
You are calling using the "Resources" class, this requires the resource to be located in a folder named "Resource" or a sub-folder of "Resources".

Do the following, if there is not already one there create a folder named "Resources" in the "Assets" folder. Next create a folder named "Fonts" within the "Resources" folder. Now move the "k010.ttf" font into the "Assets/Resources/Fonts" folder. Now add the following code

 public Font hindFont;
 
 void Start ()
 {
     if (hindFont == null)
     {
         hindFont = (Font)Resources.Load("Fonts/k010.ttf", typeof(Font));
     }
 }

You can either do the following once in the Start() function (more preferred) or you can do the following in the Update() function

 if (hindFont != null)
 {
     hindFont = (Font)Resources.Load("Fonts/k010.ttf", typeof(Font));
     go5b2.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().font = hindFont;
 }

Thanks for the effort but the problem isn't solved ! The error message is now replaced by a warning and I am still not able to get the desired font change. The warning is:

Font size and style overrides are only supported for dynamic fonts. UnityEditor.DockArea:OnGUI()
