Pressently with the cascades/Qt framework it is not supported,It will be supported in future releases. Plz refer cascades roadmaps https://developer.blackberry.com/cascades/download/roadmap/

It could be tricky getting it into QML, the recommended way for using fonts is: QFontDatabase::addApplicationFont but I'm unsure if that'll work on Blackberry as it does have issues on various platforms.

both solutions are wrong the proper one what i use is to create a weview and add fonts in the webview and then you can have the 2 way communication between the webview and the qml. Please take a look at the funkypigeon app when you crete inside text of the card.
