Why can't I change the font in the email templates?
There are several reasons why you may not be able to change the font in emails sent from Yoplanning, and this relates to technical aspects of email delivery as well as software design choices. Here are some explanations:
Email Client Compatibility: Emails should be designed to be compatible with a wide range of email clients (like Outlook, Gmail, Apple Mail, etc.), each with their own HTML and CSS rendering capabilities. Using a custom font can cause compatibility issues, as not all fonts are supported or rendered the same by all email clients.
Design preferences: The Yoplanning developers have made the decision to limit the customization options to maintain a certain uniformity and professionalism in the communications sent. This helps ensure that messages are readable and aesthetically pleasing, regardless of the platform they are opened on.
Readability Issues: Standard fonts are often chosen for their readability on various devices and screen sizes. Changing the font can affect how the message is received and understood by the recipient, especially if the chosen font is difficult to read or unconventional.
Email deliverability: Using non-standard fonts can potentially affect email deliverability. Emails that use complex layout techniques or non-standard elements may be more likely to be marked as spam by some spam filters.
