I\'ve been trying to incorporate google webfonts in MailChimp and can\'t get any solutions to work.

I\'ve tried the approach listed on Campaign Monitor\'s site using @im

Answer 1

I have been building emails a lot using mailchimp recently and I had been scratching my head over this for a while. These are my findings:

• works for google fonts.

• @import works for fonts hosted through other sites then google (for ex. your personal site)

• using something like:

• using @import for google fonts gives you an error in mailchimp (like the one horizens posted).

• base64 works as well. But the code can get way to long and cause other problems.

• Firefox blocks the fonts in Mailchimp preview (because it's https).

PS: different but related topic: Making responsive emails is not as terrible as the people of the internet claim.
