Re: How in Email Newsletter to use Hyperlinks, Bookmarks and Coded

Chuck,

You do not need to have Publisher if you send the publication as a
message...only as an attachment. If you try to send a print formatted one
page newsletter as a message it will go as an image regardless of what you
do, and file size can be an issue. If you start with an email formatted
newsletter, you can send in HTML format, and the file size is relatively
small. I just sent one of the email formatted newsletter templates and as an
image it was 186 KB, but in HTML it was just 54 kb. I am assuming the OP is
using Pub 2003, and sending the newsletter as a message, not an attachment.
Plus the OP is trying to include active hyperlinks, and unless you have
suitable PDF generating software, the links are inactive....at least if you
use primopdf. And though you do have an issue with file size, if you do send
a print formatted newsletter file sent as a message, and thus an image, the
hyperlinks survive.

Pub 2007 seems to have improved this function, though I haven't thoroughly
tested it. It appears that you can now send a print formatted newsletter in
HTML format if you choose, and thus avoid the file size issue. Seems like I
remember you saying that you got Pub 2007...try it.

Lipstain,

Unless you are absolutely certain that all recipients of your Publisher
document have Publisher installed on their computer, I would suggest that
you change the Publisher document to a pdf. There is no "viewer" for
Publisher documents.

You will find also that Publisher documents with images can easily exceed
the size acceptable to your ISP and the folks that must download the file.
For instance, our computer club's May 2006 newsletter as a PDF was 526KB.
The Publisher document was 13,065KB. At that size, most ISP servers will
not allow it. http://www.myscacc.org/newsletters.htm

Thank you for your suggestion, but this requires that the newsletter be
changed to a Web page, which is not my intention. I would like to add the
same functionality to an email newsletter, not a Web page. When I send
the
Web page as an email message, the code is exposed, not the link.

Is it not possible to add this feature to a Publisher email newsletter?

Start with an email formatted newsletter. Convert to webpage. Using the

snippet:

<A HREF="#TOP">Top of Page</A>

Place the fragment box where you want it.

I am trying to include bookmarks in a Publisher email newsletter, and I
have
learned how to do this with creating a Web page, but I have had no
success
with email newsletters.

I would like to add a "Return to Top"-type link in my newsletter which
redirects the reader to the top of the same page. Not in a Web site,
but
in
an email newsletter.

Any suggestions? Thanks!
