Question

Inconsistent Font Sizes between emails (and signatures) created in Freshsales and other applications such as MS Outlook, MS Word, Google Docs etc

We have encountered issues with font sizes in Freshsales Suite that are known previously by other customers and make Freshsales Suite unusable for outbound emailing. 
 
I wondered if anyone across the community had encountered the same issues and/or had found a workaround.
 
The Freshsales support desk highlighted that we should factor in a magnification of 1.33 when choosing font sizes in Freshsales as when any email is received in other applications like Gmail, m365, outlook they will be displayed in a smaller font.  Whilst annoying to have to calculate font sizes so that they appear in the normal range of font size 11-12 I have since found out that Freshsales has a gap in font sizes.   8,8,10,11,12,14,18 …..  To cope with a 1.33 magnification a font size selection in Freshsales of 13, 15 or 16 needs to be available to create a resulting 11-12 size font in other applications.  The support desk suggested a work around in changing the HTML code but then admitted that the change wouldn’t work either.
 
This fundamentally compromises the use of Freshsales as a platform to communicate with prospects and clients as they will only receive emails with a too large font or a very small font.
 
Examples
External application font size
 
Standard External application font size
Freshsales font size needed
11
14.6
12
15.96
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
So we are left with a Standard External application font size of either 10 or 13.5
