Pasting from Microsoft Word into an Express Email Marketing Campaign
When pasting from Microsoft Word® directly into an Express Email Marketing® campaign, Word-specific formatting is inserted into the HTML code. While this formatting works with most email providers, there are some email providers (such as Gmail) that do not support many of the standard Microsoft Word fonts.
NOTE: Some of these fonts include, but are not limited to, the following:
Bookman Old Style, Century Gothic, Copperplate Gothic Bold, Freestyle Script, Harlow Solid Italic, Lucida Console, Myriad Web Pro, and Wide Latin.
To minimize the impact this might have on your email campaign, we recommend using the Express Email Marketing Paste from Word option to check for any unnecessary HTML formatting.
