I am creating a business newsletter that I will be sending out to the
contacts on my distribution list. I created the newsletter in Microsoft Word
and copy/pasted (using "select all") into the body of the Microsoft Outlook
2003 email. I am having trouble getting the newsletter to show up in the
correct format in the emails of the recipients. I've tried using HTML format
when sending the newsletter and it showed "doubled spaced" in some parts of
the body for some recipients. So I tried using Rich Text format when sending
the newsletter--the text showed up in the correct format, but the two images
in the newsletter came up as gray boxes. Please help me! I want the
newsletter to show up in the correct format (i.e. - no "double spaces") and
with the two images! Thank you for any assistance that you may be able to
provide.

Have you tried creating the newsletter using HTML?

I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean. I created it in Microsoft word
and pasted it into Microsoft Outlook 2003. At the top of the new email it
has Message Format options for: HTML, Rich Text, and Plain Text. I have
tried both the HTML and the Rich Text formats. Is this what you mean?

Another alternative would be to convert the newsletter into jpg file and
paste it into Outlook

How can I change a word document into a jpg? I opened the newsletter in Word
and clicked "Save As," but there wasn't a "jpg" option on the drop down menu??

Create it in Microsoft Outlook using Word as the message editor and HTML as the message format.

If you create it in Word then you would need another program like Snag-it to
make the jpg file. Another thing you can try if you have Office 2007 is too
save it as a pdf and the open it in Adobe Reader and then try your copy and
paste

Don't do that. Save your newsletter as a html-file. Then open a new
html-mail and go to

Insert | File

Then highlight the html-file and click onto the little arrow near the
insert button. A pulldown menu will appear and there choose the option
"Insert as text".

Thanks, I tried your suggestion but the recipient email still shows up with
irregular spacing and font?!?
