Notepaper again

D

Dave Neve

Hi

Sorry to start over on this again but I am more confused than ever.

I've been trying to design notepaper to use in Outlook.

I thought that the notepaper must be in .html format but I have a problem

When I put it into the 'Notepaper' folder in Outlook , a folder suddenly
appears with it. In the folder, you have the
photo and other stuff that appears in the htlm file (seen this behaviour
before with htlm)

When I then locate my headed notepaper and load it in Outlook, it appears
but without the photo (which is no doubt left in the folder)

I 've tried getting round this my using a .mtl file instead but it is the
same.

I've also tried to get everything onto one htlm page my using Frontapage but
the result is the same

I know there must be a workaround cos Outlook has headed notepaper with
images and they work fine so

Looking at Outlook and the folder C:\Program Files\Shared
Files\Microsoft Shared\Notepaper

I've noticed that there are two types of notepaper

1 .htm files alone (for paper with a pattern but no drawing)

2 .htm with an accompanying .jpg or .gif file (to add drawing )

The htm files seem to manipulate the .jpg or.gif.

For instance, there is a notepaper called 'Ivy'.

The .gif has a picture of one single leaf but when I open the .htm
page, it has lots of leaves (so I assume it is a repeated image)

It also runs down the left hand side of the page so their is
inversion of some sort.

Now, if this is more or less right, I am not surprised I am having so many
problems

Does this mean I must use htm code or something to make notepaper?

Or is it that I can't see the wood for the trees?


Thanks
