Support Communities / Mac OS & System Software / OS X Mountain Lion Announcement: Upgrade to macOS Mojave. Problem with mail signatures. I can't get it to show up in a new email. There is a dropdown on the right side of the new email window for choosing signatures but it isn't even in there. Any other ideas? Included in the office suite is Outlook 2011, a step up from the monstrosity known as Entourage, which was a watered down attempt at bringing Outlook to the Mac since OS9. Creating complex HTML email signatures in Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac. There has to be an easy way to make a HTML email signature with an image right? Ie emulator for mac and chrome.

First of all, save your logo as an image. And then you can insert your logo or images into signature with following steps: 1. In the Message window, click the Signature button in the Include group under Message tab. Apart from the way above, you can also get the Signature button in the Include group under the Insert tab. Click the Signatures item in the drop down list. In the Signature and Stationery dialog box, select one signature that you will add a logo or image to in the Select signature to edit box.

In the Edit signature section, place the cursor at the position where you will insert a logo or image. Click the Image button.

In the Insert Picture dialog box, select the logo or image you will insert, and click the Insert button. After clicking the Insert button, you can see the logo or image is inserted in the signature. Click the OK button in the Signature and Stationery dialog box. Note: Up to now you have inserted your logo or image into selected signature.

If you set this signature with logo or image as default signature, the inserted logo or image and original signature information will show in every message you compose automatically. Demo: Add a logo or image to Outlook signature.

I’ve created my HTML signature in an external application and then placed the files (including txt and rtf versions) in the. This signature contains a picture and looks correct when composing a new message or reply. However, when I send the message, the recipient does not see this picture.

I’ve successfully used this signature for years with Outlook 2010 and the issue only occurs when I send a message with this signature from Outlook 2016. Why is this happening and how can I make my signature work with Outlook 2016?

Outlook 2013 and Outlook 2016 indeed include a change of defaults regarding the handling of linked pictures when compared to previous versions of Outlook. In previous versions of Outlook, linked pictures would get embedded upon sending.

In Outlook 2013 and Outlook 2016, linked pictures will remain linked. Linked and embedded pictures? Html-signatures don’t actually contain the picture files themselves, they include html code with references to the location of the pictures. Upon sending, Outlook used to take these pictures and places them within the message itself and change the references to an internal resource: the images were embedded within the email.

Outlook 2013 and Outlook 2016 no longer do this and maintain the link to the location of the picture instead. This means that when the signature includes a reference to a picture that exists on your local computer rather than online, this reference will still exist for the recipient which of course does not have this picture on his/her local computer. The result is that the recipient will see a broken image icon with the text; The linked image cannot be displayed. The file may have been moved, renamed, or deleted. Verify that the link points to the correct file location. Signature editor, HTML editor and scripted signatures The issue actually only happens when you’ve manually created the signature in an HTML editor rather than the Outlook Signature Editor.

This issue can also happen when your signature with for instance a company logo is automatically generated for you via a corporate script such as included in the guide: The fact that it works when you’ve included the picture via the Outlook Signature Editor is because special HTML tags are used (or actually ) which are recognized upon sending so that Outlook will still end up embedding these linked pictures. The solution Aside from recreating the signature via the Outlook Signature Editor or applying the VML picture implementation, you can configure Outlook 2013 or Outlook 2016 to always embed all linked pictures (just like previous versions of Outlook) by setting the following value. Key Outlook 2013: HKEY_CURRENT_USER Software Microsoft Office 15.0 Outlook Options Mail Key Outlook 2016: HKEY_CURRENT_USER Software Microsoft Office 16.0 Outlook Options Mail Value type: REG_DWORD Value name; Send Pictures With Document Value: 1 Note: The value name contains spaces and capital letters; you must include these as well. Another way to go would be to place the images on a web server which is also reachable for your recipients.
