Hi Lorraine,
It could be that your text boxes aren't locked and that the text inside
is
moving with the spaces that Outlook is inserting. Yes, I've had my share
of
experiences with this! I suggest viewing in Word with Web Layout view,
this
will show you if any of your boxes are not set to the correct layout. I
have
found that all my text boxes should be set to:
Wrapping Style: In front of text
Horizontal Alignment: other
These settings are what has been working for me. Also, and you may
already
be doing this, do some test mailouts to yourself to proof any errors
that
may occur. Hope that helps!
