clients as possible. For example, some email clients may not support SVG, so converting
a resource to JPG instead would ensure that most email clients would actually see the
output.
To rasterize an element, right-click it and select Rasterize options. For a JPG image you
can set the quality of the resulting image in a percentage.
Email output settings in the Email context and sections
The following settings for the Email context and Email sections have an impact on how the
actual emails are sent.
l An Email To Script must be available in the template and refer to a valid email address;
see "Email header settings" on page373. If any record does not have a valid email, this
record is skipped automatically when generating email output.
Note
When you send a test email, the Email To Script will not be used; instead, the email
will be sent to the address that you specify in the Send Test Email dialog.
l The sender(s), recipient(s) and the subject can be set using Script Wizards; see "Email
header settings" on page373.
l Default SMTP settings can be set in the preferences; see "Email header settings" on
page373.
l If there are multiple Email sections, only one of them can be merged with each record.
Make sure that the correct section has been set as the default; see "Setting a default
Email template for output" on page373.
To dynamically select a section for output, use a Control Script; see "Control Scripts" on
page645.
l PDF attachments can be compressed to make the files smaller; see "Compressing PDF
attachments" on page369.
