Hi Chris,

I am wondering if you were able to get the fonts working in an actual email? I am able to import the fonts into my template just fine and they show up there, but once I actually send out the email, anything written in the Google font defaults to Times or Ariel...

Thanks!

Hope this helps!

CSS import is the best way to use web font inside the email templates. However, it may not work on all email clients.

Absolutely — depending on the scope and requirements of your project, you will need to check to see if this is right for you.
