Hi,

Is it possible to include animations in a page in publisher which I'm
sending directly by email (not as an attachment), i.e. will the animations be
animated or will they remain static?

Thanks

Did you think to email it to yourself and see what the answer is?

That's the short answer, the long answer is that animated gifs are supported
in html. The Send as mail feature turns the page into an html mail message.
But how that message is received depends on the recievers email client and
it's support of html and images (static or otherwise).

According to the troubleshooter, if you send a page as an email any animated
gifs remain static. Is there any other format of animation available for
download which I could use instead?
