Gmail is not rendering Font correctly on Emails

Gmail does not work with Google Fonts or any webfont.

Gmail supports a number of web safe fonts. I can't locate the list and don't see Oswald listed. Perhaps it's supported, but not listed. Or perhaps it maps to a similar font.

These are the fonts supported by Gmail:

Stackoverflow wants me to post code before I could post the link
of fonts that work in Gmail I maintain on JSFiddle.
I felt a list of fonts might be useful in choosing a fallback font.

I am not being lazy, look at the link and you'll understand.

Good luck.

The problem is: the fonts are rendered perfectly on apple mail, on Gmail only Oswald.

For the first part of this question, apple mail supports web fonts. This is the reason you see it render properly across all apple mail clients.

For the second part (Gmail) would have Oswald in its family font, that is the only reason that I can think off that will render Oswald in your emails.

I've tried to figure out, why 'Merriweather Sans' is not rendered correctly, but no chance.

Gmail still has an issue with web fonts linked to emails and that is the reason 'Merriweather Sans' is not rendered.

Web fonts don't have universal support, here are the email clients where they are supported:

• AOL Mail
• Native Android mail app (not Gmail app)
• Apple Mail
• iOS Mail
• Outlook 2000
• Outlook.com app
