title: Gmail not showing correct font
body: <p>I am trying to change the font of my emails to open sans, however, I am having issues with Gmail rendering the correct font. I managed to find a way to solve the issue for outlook. This is what I have:</p>
  
  <p>body {</p>
  
  <pre><code>        @font-face {
                  font-family: 'Open Sans';
                  font-style: normal;
                  font-weight: 300;
                  src: local('Open Sans'), local('OpenSans'), url(http://themes.googleusercontent.com/static/fonts/opensans/v6/cJZKeOuBrn4kERxqtaUH3bO3LdcAZYWl9Si6vvxL-qU.woff) format('woff');
              }
          }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have also tried other things such as declaring all text to be open sans:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:300'rel='stylesheet'type='text/css'&gt;
       &lt;style type="text/css"&gt;
      .stylealltext { font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif;}
      .stylealltextbold {font-weight: bold; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p></p>
  
  <p>However, Gmail decides to show Arial, while Google Inbox decides to show Helvetica.. It looks like Google's mailing services just overrides whatever I feed it. Can anyone help?</p>

  <p>Solution</p>
  
  <p>Salvimatus's solution worked:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;span style="font-family: your-chosen-font"&gt;your text&lt;/span&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The span needs to manually added.</p>
