Question
Hi Candice. I urgently need to send out a newsletter to clients. I don't know HTML yet. In the meantime, will it work if I create my Newsletter in ID CS3, save it as a JPEG and then insert the JPEG as a picture in an Outlook message? Thank you in advance.
Hi Gretchen,
It would be better to save it as a lo-res pdf (better screen quality) but sure. It won't be inserted, they will have to download it.
if you want to insert it, you'll need to save it as a hi-res pdf and then open that pdf in photoshop and save as a jpg there.
(you can save it as a jpg in indesign, but the quality is terrible).
