Carl,

Dada can't tell what font style you choose in the editor The editor is a completely different program, the only interaction being that of passing the generated html text to Dada

You'll have to design around this problem Perhaps come up with a neutral layout for the appended unsub message, explain it as a feature, ie the different style differentiates the functional aspect of that area of the message Maybe that would keep your managers happy!

I'd like to point out that I've used very expensive commercial mailing list products that are unable to do what you describe

If I'm getting the right end of the stick, that is

Hi Henry,

I understand HTML, but putting a style=Arial in the email template only forces the template text to be different than what is created in the email body text I am trying to make the text in both places the same When you create the message text you can set any font you want when the FCKEditor addin is installed, but when the template appends the unsubscribe, etc text, I would prefer it keep the same font as was used in the body It looks bad to have the fonts change and its also bad to force managers to only use Arial My problem is the template always uses New Times Roman unless I force the text to a specific font I don't want either of those cases

Carl,

How an html email appears has as much to do with what you read it with, as how it is sent The only way to be sure that your text remains in the same font is to make sure that all your styles are inline within the html code, eg:

paragraph of text to appear in Arial font

There are all sorts of methods of getting a required layout, but the only way to be sure is to test, test, and test again The following link is a very good guide:

I hope this helps, however you will have to get your hands dirty in the html code Writing HTML emails is a bit like web design from 1999

When I send HTML email, the font can be changed in the body text, but the template text seems to always be New Times Roman so the email ends up with different fonts Is there a way to have the template text match the body text?
