How to display custom font in grid cell in MAUI DataGrid (SfDataGrid)?

The .NET MAUI DataGrid(SfDataGrid) allows you to display custom fonts in DataGridColumn. To use the custom fonts in SfDataGrid, refer to the following steps:

Step 1: Add the custom fonts in True Type Font (TTF) format in the Resources’ Fonts folder.
Step 2: Register the fonts by invoking the ConfigureFonts method on the MauiAppBuilder object. Add the required fonts using the AddFont method by passing the font filename as a parameter. You can also specify an optional alias name by passing the second parameter.

public static class MauiProgram
{
 public static MauiApp CreateMauiApp()
 {
  var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder();
  builder
   .UseMauiApp<App>()
   .ConfigureFonts(fonts =>
   {
                fonts.AddFont("Lobster-Regular.ttf", "LobsterRegular");
                fonts.AddFont("Satisfy-Regular.ttf", "SatisfyRegular");
            });
        builder.ConfigureSyncfusionCore();
        return builder.Build();
 }
}

Step 3: Consume the fonts by referencing its name or alias name to the RowFontFamily property of DataGridStyle.

<syncfusion:SfDataGrid x:Name="dataGrid" AutoGenerateColumnsMode="None" GridLinesVisibility="Both" HeaderGridLinesVisibility="Both" ColumnWidthMode="Fill" ItemsSource="{Binding OrderInfoCollection}"  >
        <syncfusion:SfDataGrid.DefaultStyle>
            <syncfusion:DataGridStyle  RowFontSize="10" RowFontFamily="Satisfy-Regular"></syncfusion:DataGridStyle>
        </syncfusion:SfDataGrid.DefaultStyle>
        <syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>
            <syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="Customer" HeaderText="Name">
            </syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn>
            <syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="Country"></syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn>
        </syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>
    </syncfusion:SfDataGrid>
