[OPLINTECH] Publisher 2007 Send as an email message.

Try out CutePDF, its free. It will allow you to convert the document
into a PDF that shouldn't fragment or have any broken images and such.
It installs itself as a virtual printer, so when you choose to print to
it, you just select the output location of the file and voila! It's a
pdf.

Subject: [OPLINTECH] Publisher 2007 Send as an email message.

 

Hello,

 

Sorry for any cross posting.

 

Does anyone use MS Publisher 2007 to create newsletters then try and
send them as an email message using Outlook 2007???

 

Our PR staff create library newsletters using MS Publisher 2007, then
send them as email messages by selecting File-> Send E-mail -> Send as
E-Mail message.  When the converted file being sent is previewed the
newsletter is fine, but when the email is received by the patron the
news letter is broken apart and fragmented when viewed in Outlook, but
looks fine in Gmail and Yahoomail.

 

The PR staff does not want to send this as an attachment but as the body
of an email.  I have converted the publisher file to a JPEG but all
links within the newsletter will not function which is not acceptable.
I've also "Selected All" within publisher then pasted the newsletter
into Outlook with HTML enabled.  This allows the newsletter to be viewed
correctly within MS Outlook 2007, but the email body is broken up in
Gmail and Yahoomail.

 

Has anyone have this problem and discovered a workaround?

 

Thanks,
