Hi, I have built a pdf form. I have set Calibri as the fornt for all the fields, mostly because of is condensed structure. When i fill the fields on a PC, proper font is displayed. But if i try to do the same from android, the font changes. How can i use Calibri on android?

Calibri is not a custom font. But forms may or may not work as expected on phones and tablets, due to their closed structure.

Any (non-Type1) font you use for a form field will be fully embedded in the file (if you used Acrobat to create it, at least). So the information is available. It's up to the viewing application to make the correct use of it.

Bottom line is there's probably nothing you can do about it. If it doesn't work report the issue to the developers of the application you're using to view the file on Android.
