Troubleshoot sending a publication in e-mail
My text turns to a picture when I preview or send my current page as an e-mail message.
Text associated with the following situations will preview and be exported as an image:
- Fonts that are not optimized for display on the Web
- Objects with fill colors or line borders
- Text boxes or tables that are rotated, overlapping, or touching
- Text boxes or tables that contain inline objects
- Text boxes that extend into the scratch area
- Text boxes with columns
- All the text boxes in a chain of connected text boxes, if any of the text boxes in the chain fit any of the descriptions above
- Form controls
- Tables with diagonals
- Publication with a background fill or graphic
Send Current Page as Message and E-mail Preview do not appear under Send E-mail on the File menu.
Check that you have Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 or Microsoft Outlook Express (version 5.0 or later) installed and configured correctly.
Check to make sure that your background and text are not close in color. If they are, they may be blurry when your publication is sent.
