Hello, Community,

I have a weekly newsletter sent via Outlook. Currently, I create the newsletter in Adobe Illustrator, export it as PNG, and insert it into the email body within a table. I do this to avoid formatting issues and to ensure each image has a different link without mixing them up.

However, I am facing two main problems:

Disconfiguration in the New Outlook: The format is received perfectly in the Classic Outlook, but in the New Outlook, the newsletter gets disconfigured.
Cell Alignment: I spend a lot of time aligning the cells to ensure they are correct, with size and proportion between them, as the articles vary in size according to the topics.

A friend mentioned that in her previous job, they produced the newsletter in InDesign and managed to insert it into Outlook without needing to use tables. I would like to know more about this approach or other solutions that can solve my problems.

I have access to all Adobe tools and am looking for a more efficient way to create and send my newsletter.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Either you misunderstood your friend or your friend misunderstood you. If you want full control over an email blast, get a MailChimp or Constant Contact account or attached a PDF (or a link to download one).

This is 100% not even close to an InDesign issue.

Eu vi que existe como fazer por HTML, então por isso meu questionamento, Bob

You're not the first to want to do this. My prior advice stands.

InDesign is NOT the tool for this. HTML emails do not adhere to any standards.

Olá, Comunidade

Tenho uma newsletter semanal enviada pelo Outlook. Atualmente, crio a newsletter no Adobe Illustrator, exporto como PNG e insiro no corpo do e-mail dentro de uma tabela. Faço isso para evitar desformatação e para que cada imagem tenha um link diferente, sem se misturar com outros.

No entanto, estou enfrentando dois problemas principais:

Desconfiguração no Novo Outlook: O formato é recebido perfeitamente no Outlook Clássico, mas no Novo Outlook, a newsletter fica desconfigurada.
Alinhamento das Células: Perco muito tempo alinhando as células para que fiquem corretas, com tamanho e proporção entre si, já que as matérias variam de tamanho, conforme pautas.

Uma amiga mencionou que em seu trabalho anterior, eles produziam a newsletter no InDesign e conseguiam inseri-la no Outlook sem precisar usar tabelas. Gostaria de saber mais sobre essa abordagem ou outras soluções que possam resolver meus problemas.

Tenho acesso a todas as ferramentas Adobe e estou buscando uma maneira mais eficiente de criar e enviar minha newsletter.

Agradeço desde já pela ajuda!
