How to email a Word 2007 document without losing formatting
I created a resume in Word 2007. I saved it in rich txt format and when I
copy and paste it into an email, the original layout and format of the resume is lost and the resume looks awful. Can anyone help me? Thanks, Michelle |

How to email a Word 2007 document without losing formatting
Rather than copy and paste it into an email message, why can't you just
attach it as an attached document? If you must copy and paste, then you will need to change the format of your email message to rich text rather than plain text, OR, change the format of your resume to a plain text resume. I would suggest using Notepad as your text editor rather than Word or WordPad. Good Luck. -- Dawn Crosier Microsoft MVP "Education Lasts a Lifetime" This message is posted to a newsgroup.

How to email a Word 2007 document without losing formatting
Or... since you're using Word 2007, why not save the file in pdf format.
That way, it will appear exactly as you want it to appear to the recipient--even if they don't have Word, and even if they're not using Windows. Click the Office button (upper left corner) and choose Save as - PDF or XPS, etc. If that's not available as an option, then install the free PDF/XPS add-in: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Dawn Crosier, Word MVP" wrote in message ...
