Can't read email
It can...but you'll never control your viewer's computer settings...so
sending html email will always be a problem. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rob Giordano Microsoft MVP Expression "muoct28" wrote in message ... It does work if I send it as a pdf.

The pdf works great, but now there is another problem. There are web links on
the page that don't work when made into a pdf......any solution for this? -- Mark "DavidF" wrote: If you are saying that only the images in the publication are not visible, and the rest is fine, and only in Outlook 2007, then yes, that is probably a setting in Outlook.

OK, then that means we are back to a formatting problem that is killing the
link. I am assuming that when you say the links don't work that you cannot click on them and get a browser page to open, correct? That the link is simply dead, correct? I would first try an experiment. Insert a new text box at the bottom of the page of your publication and put some text in it. Use a web friendly font (Arial, comic sans, courier, georgia, etc), do not fill the text box with any fill, do not add a border, or group it with any other design element on the page...in other words, no special formatting. Insert a hyperlink, do a web page preview. Test the link...and the other links on the page that you had inserted before. Now convert the publication to a PDF by File Publish as a PDF. Now test the links. Does the new plain text box hyperlink work? If it does, then you know that the other links are not working because of the formatting. Read the tips on the page I referenced about formatting to avoid, to figure out what you are doing wrong with the other links.

Can't read email
Thanks....I finally found out that it's my AVG email scan that wasn't letting
pudlisher page to show up in the email body. The three laptop computers that are in the office have the Free AVG ver. 8.0 anti virus, they couldn't read the email. The decktop with other anti virus programs could read the email. So when I disabled the email scan I can now read it. But I will get the lady who designs the flyer in publisher to try to get the hyperlink to work in a pdf file. I think that will be a better way to go.
