Creating an Email template with a Wizard
With the Designer you can design Email templates as well as PDF attachments. PDF
attachments are designed in the Print context; see "Print context" on page130.
It is strongly recommended to start creating an Email template with a Wizard, because
designing HTML email that displays properly on a variety of devices and screen sizes is
challenging. Email clients can, and will, interpret the same HTML and (inline) CSS in totally
different ways (see "Designing an Email template" on page165).
With an Email Template Wizard you can easily create an Email template that outputs emails
that look good on virtually any email client, device and screen size.
After creating an Email template, the other contexts can be added to it, as well as other sections
(see "Contexts" on page116 and "Email templates" on page174).
To create an Email template with a Template Wizard:
1.
In the Welcome screen that appears after startup:
l
Choose Browse Template Wizards.
Scroll down until you see the Email Template Wizards. There are three types of
Email Template Wizards:
l Basic Email templates
l Banded Email templates
l Slate: Responsive Email templates by Litmus.
l
Or choose Create a New Template and select the Email template. This starts the
Basic Action Email wizard.
Alternatively, on the File menu, click New, and:
l Select Email Template. This starts the Basic Action Email wizard.
l
Or expand the Template folder, and then expand the Basic Email templates folder,
the Banded Email templates folder, or the Slate: Responsive Email Templates
by Litmus folder.
See "Email Template Wizards" on page171 for information about the various types of
Template Wizards.
