You'll need to provide a lot more info, like the relevant parts of your HTML (please highlight, and you don't need to include the whole thing).

 

Web fonts are incompletely supported in email clients: https://www.litmus.com/blog/the-ultimate-guide-to-web-fonts/

 

Marketo Email Preview doesn't emulate a client, so it's always compatible b/c all web browsers are.

First — need highlighted code, not screenshots. Consider accessibility.

 

Second — you cannot expect it to work in Gmail, as per the link I provided earlier, Gmail only supports a tiny set of built-in non-local fonts.
