Is there a way to set a font to apply to an entire email?

I've been trying to apply a font to an entire email (which is composed of a table).

Putting the font-family in the 'style' of the <body> tag doesn't work, nor does putting it in the <table> or <tbody> tags, nor does putting a <font> tag around the table work.

What is the best way to do this? Do I need a font-family inline style in each <td>, or a <font> tag around all of the content? Is there really no way to declare the font at an e-mail wide level?

Solution

  • You need to define your font in each <td>. Many email clients will automaticly reset the font within a <td>.

    So something like <td style='font-family: Arial'>.

    You can also do it in the header, but some clients will ignore this (looking at you outlook 2013-2016) Body{ font-family: Arial !important }
