The Google Font API and HTML Email |
|
05.24.2010 Google, in conjunction with Typekit, just released a new Font API that allows designers to easily import non-standard OS fonts into their web pages. The API uses the CSS @font-face rule but relies on their CDN to provide the data bandwidth, which is probably much faster than yours. After hearing about this we wanted to investigate and find out the email client support for such an API.

Until now, designing and developing HTML emails has been like trying to hit a moving target while blindfolded. Each of the email clients have different standards for how they accept and render standard HTML and CSS.
Our goal is to help designers understand the do’s and dont’s for creating a successfull email campaign. This is a community effort to improve the email experience for both designers and readers alike.
