Problem with email newsletter from MS Publisher 2007
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! |
