html and MS Publisher help!?

Question

I have created this document in MS Publisher and I was hoping to email it by copying and pasting the html code. What I did is, published the document to the web and right clicked and selected "view source" and retrieved the code. However, when I copy and pasted the code into the email and sent it, it seems like different email accounts have different effects displaying the content. For an example, when I sent it to myself through my yahoo account the text was seperated from the bordering design. When I sent it to an outlook account, the bordering design didn't even show up. If someone is willing to help and has MS Publisher I would be more than happy to send them the document and see what they can do. Thanks for any advice!

Answer 1

Publisher writes terrible, terrible HTML code - just awful non-standard stuff. Some email clients with their own renderer, such as Eudora, probably would have a hard time reading that HTML and showing it in a way you would expect.



I think you would be better off, if you have to send a precisely formatted Publisher document, to export it to PostScript, and then use Adobe Acrobat or GhostScript to turn it into a PDF file.



You can get GhostScript and GSView at http://cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/ - GSView is the tool that can make PostScript output from Publisher into a PDF file. Follow its help instructions.



The next version of Microsoft Publisher will be able to make PDF files directly.

Answer 2

The problem is that when you just copy the code, the supporting files are not copied along with it. For example, you will have the file with the HTML (like MySite.htm) and then there should also be a file folder named MySite that contains all of the pictures and extras you have on your page.



So, you can either send a link to your page (www.MySite.com) or you can zip up the HTML file along with the folder and send that. If you need to know how, just let me know.



Hope this helps!
