This is a very general question regarding Apple Mail. An HTML signature is to be created for this. That worked so far. Now the customer wants a web font. As far as I know, I cannot integrate these using an inline CSS. On the other hand, I can't write a head tag in the signature either. Is there a way to embed a web font in Apple Mail or is it not?

Web fonts work the same way in web and emails. You declare it using @font-face. The support for web fonts however is limited in emails.
The following email clients have suport for web fonts:
- iOS Mail
- Apple Mail
- Android (default mail client, not Gmail app)
- Outlook 2000
- Outlook.com app
- Thunderbird
All other email clients will resort to fall back fonts or the fonts coded into email clients will/might* show:
- Apple Mail = Helvetica
- Gmail = Arial
- Microsoft Outlook
*= Calibri
Hope that answers your question.

* Defaults to Times new Roman if not declared/coded properly.
