Hi all, I’m creating Zaps to send emails via gmail, and want to change font. 

 

I’m using HTML, 

<style>
        body {
            font-family: 'prompt';
        }
    </style>

 

But the font in gmail does not seem to change ? 

Any ideas how to fix the issue ? 

 

Thanks

HI @lrdbarrd 

Good question.

Try doing inline styling.


Hi @lrdbarrd

I'm having the same problem and have been looking for a while. 

As I get to know, Gmail overrides any font you add. I’m still searching why..

I found a solution to this problem, but I don't think it's the best option:

        <td>
            <font face="Trebuchet MS">Text 1</font>
        </td> 

        <td>
            <font face="Trebuchet MS">
                <p>Text 1</p>
            </font>
        </td>

You must add the <font> tag to every text you need. Another option it's  close a <p> or   <span> tag with the <font> tag.
Always need to add face attribute with a family font name. But this only works with safe fonts.


Hi friends,

I’m jumping in to see if I can help!

Here’s how I changed the font when using the “Send Email” action in Gmail:

  1. I nagivated to this link: https://www.w3schools.com/Tags/tag_font.asp
  2. Here’s how i setup the “Body” field:

  3. Here’s the result in the email:
