Android Fonts
Hello Community,
Is there a list of what fonts come with Android? Apple has a nice list for iphone devices, but I cant find a similar list for Android. Thank you for your time.

My understanding (admittedly very basic) is that Android doesn't have a lot of font choices by default. Recent versions basically use the Roboto font family for everything: http://developer.android.com/design/style/typography.html
Previous versions relied on Droid Sans, Droid Serif, and Droid Sans Mono. That being said, I'm pretty sure there is a way for developers to embed different font families within their apps, so there could be other options on an app-by-app basis.
Don't quote me on any of that though, I'm not an Android developer and there could be more options.
Thanks Jason for the insight.
A client wishes to use Impact on a email headline, so I'm trying to find a substitute I can call in the font stack. Roberto Condensed might be the closet thing.
