Strikethrough font style in Entourage 2004?

P

Paul Berkowitz

How can I get strikethrough formating into an e-mail in Entourage 2004?

Do your message in Word 2004, using Strikethrough and whatever other formats
you want, go to File | Send To -> Mail Recipient (As HTML), and enter the
email address or recipient when it switches you to Entourage, and send.

I also don't have Word 2004 installed, I have Indesign which allows me to do
strikethrough formating however when I copy and paste this into a HTML e-mail
in Entourage 2004 it doesn't keep the formating.

Search for the "Send Complex HTML X" AppleScript. You can find it at

It's impossible to buy Entourage 2004 on its own, it only comes as part of
Microsoft Office 2004. So insert the CD and install Word 2004, then do what
I said in my last post.

"Send Complex HTML X" (which is my script) works if you have an HTML file
(made, for example, in Dreamweaver or GoLive) or else a web page open in
Safari or another browser. As far as I know. InDesign is not HTML, which is
why I did not recommend the script. Perhaps it lets you save documents as
HTML (or does it in GoLive?) In that case, yes, the script would do the
trick. That might be the best bet. I was thinking rather that Gudrun could
copy and paste into Word, re-apply Strikethrough if it isn't maintained
(though it probably would be, using the appropriate Paste option if needed)
then Send To Recipient as HTML.
