Problem when pasting text specifically to Outlook

Post by gburiola »

Hi Nikos....

First of all thanks for the excellent software.
I read some posts on the forum but didn't find anything similar to what I'm experiencing.

Whenever I past text from Editor into Outlook and Outlook Express, for some reason every paragraph gets double spaced and is also changed to a smaller font size.

I tried pasting text from Editor into MS Word, notepad, Powerpoint, Wordpad and in all those programs it works just fine. The problem only happens with Outlook and Outlook express.

Have you ever seen anything similar to that?

Thanks a lot and greetings from Brazil.

I have seen a similar problem, but it was to do with the way Outlook was configured. Check how the e-mail is formatted, RTF, HTML, plain text.

I tried to change the email format, but the problem continues. Even in plain text, pasted text gets some sort of "double paragraph" and a smaller font.

yeah i dunno how outlook manages to screw up like that
if you paste e.g. from ed2 to word you'll see that no formatting is applied, ie it's pure text

outlook on the other hand gets funny
