1.
Right-click the Stylesheet folder on the Resources pane, and click New Remote
Stylesheet.
2. Enter a name for the file as it appears in the Stylesheet resources. For better
management, it's best to use the same filename as the remote resource.
3.
Enter the URL for the remote resource. This must be a full URL, including the http:// or
https:// prefix, domain name, path and filename.
There are a few advantages to remote resources:
l These resources are not served by your server, saving on space, bandwidth and
processing.
l Using a popular CDN takes advantage of caching - a client having visited another
website using that same CDN will have the file in cache and not re-download it making
for faster load times for the client.
Tip
To refresh the remote resources in a Designer view, use the Refresh option in the menu (View >
Refresh) or the Refresh button at the top of the Workspace.
Styling your templates with CSS files
Note
Email clients do not read CSS files and some even remove a <style> tag when it is present in the
email's header. Nevertheless, CSS files can be used with the Email context in the Designer. When
generating output from the Email context, the Designer converts all CSS rules that apply to the
content of the email to inline style tags, as if local formatting was applied.
