The reason some folks are receiving your newsletter with attachments is because
they have chosen not to receive HTML email.
The only way you can be sure your newsletter will be received exactly as you
send it is via PDF. I know you stated you rather not have a PDF attachment, but
it is preferable.

Another alternative would be to compose the newsletter in Outlook.

I have created a newsletter in MS Publisher 2007 for distribution via email,
using Outlook 2007 with Business Contact Manager. I intend the newsletter to
be in the message body of the email and for it to be personalised (and have
worked out how to achieve that in MS Publisher and Business Contacts
Manager). The newsletter will be 'launched' using the 'Create a Marketing
Campaign' button in MS Publisher. I do not want this to go out as a pdf file.

All looks good on screen, when I preview the newsletter (and it opens in my
browser, IE8), it looks perfect!

However, when I sent a test newsletter to myself, when it appears in the
sent box, some of the formatting is lost, (eg text spills below where I
designed it to be and some images have corners missing, etc). It appears
with similar formatting problems when it arrives in my inbox.

When I send test newsletters to trusted others, some see the newsletter
appearing perfectly and others do not, and there seems to be no consistent
reason - some view it fine using Outlook, others don't; some view it fine
using web-based mail, such as hotmail and google, others don't.

One person has reported that as well as receiving the newsletter in the
message, they also received a sizeable number of file attachments (ie one for
each image / graphic / box outline, etc).

Am I missing something in the settings / options for Publisher and / or
Outlook that will enable me to send the newsletter in the body of the message
without all the attachments going with it and with greater confidence that
the formatting issues outlined above will not occur?

Also, when I receive newsletters, I am always given the chance to 'click
here' to view in my web browser. How can I provide this option in my
newsletter?

I am using Windows Vista Home Premium, IE8. and Office 2007 including
Business Contact Manager

Thanks for your help!
