Default How can I set tabs on document to stay aligned when emailing?

Are you trying to email this document as the body of a message? If so there
is no way you are going to get it to appear the same. Word Doc and email
HTML have entirely different constructions and formatting requirements
(check your document with Web view). Mailing documents as attachments has
another set of issues - see

I am using Windows XP. I am using a word document that someone else
created, with five colums of information. i.e., name and address of
company, type business, phone number, contact person, and follow-up
info. When it was emailed to me, nothing stayed in the right column.
When I try to "fix" it, it stays aligned if I print the document, but
when I email it, it gets all messed up again. HELP. What can I do
to prevent this from happening? And is there a way to fix the messed
up email copy with out too much work?
