Here is my body:

How can i fix this please?

Thanks,

What I have tried:

C#

body.AppendLine("<!DOCTYPE html>");
body.AppendLine("<html dir='rtl' lang='ar'>");
body.AppendLine("<head>");
body.AppendLine("<meta charset='UTF-8'>");
body.AppendLine("<meta name='viewport' content='width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0'>");
body.AppendLine("<link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Changa&subset=arabic' rel='stylesheet' />");
body.AppendLine("</head>");
body.AppendLine("<body dir='rtl' lang='ar' style='font-family: Changa'>");
body.AppendLine("<hr /><br />");
body.AppendLine("السلام عليكم " + txtSignupFirstName.Text + "<br /><br />");
body.AppendLine("يرجى استخدام رمز التفعيل الذي تم إرساله على هاتفكم النقال لتفعيل الحساب..<br /><br />");
body.AppendLine("<br /><br />");
body.AppendLine("</body>");
body.AppendLine("</html>");

Solution 1

If the "receiver" does not have the font installed on their machine, another font from the same "font family" is substituted by the "system".

Fonts are "files" and do not get downloaded automatically.
