Can Outlook 2010 use a web font in an html email?

Question

I\'ve tried several things, including wrapping the css. Any ideas on how to get an html email Outlook 2010 to use a webfont and not default to a preinstalled font?

I really like Zougen Moriver's answer. Although I worry about the being stripped.

I tried hiding the font stack in a conditional statement but it didn't work for me. Neither did the @import. So I wrapped each block of copy with a font tag like so:

It’s an unforgettable night of friends, thrills, memories and laughs topped off with a performance by TBD on the Music Plaza stage. No senior should miss this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

It worked during testing.

This way if the ever gets stripped then the fall back to Aril remains intact.

The down side is that it's tedious work to put that around every block of copy.
