Creating HTML emails

To create HTML (i.e., Web format) emails in your DePauw Google Account email, you must first create the email in an HTML editing program. Also, all images or referenced files need to be stored on the Internet, and they cannot be attachments to the DePauw Google Account email message.

To create an HTML email

  • Create the page in an HTML editor
  • Upload the page to a Web server so you can view it in a browser
  • In the browser, copy all the content:
    • If you have Windows
      • Press Ctrl-A to select all content
      • Press Ctrl-C to copy
    • If you have a Mac
      • Press Command-A to select all content
      • Press Command-C to copy
  • In DePauw Google Account email:
    • Click Compose
    • Select Rich formatting (Note: If Plain Text is displayed, then Rich formatting is enabled; otherwise, click Rich formatting.)
      Google Mail compose bar
    • Paste the content into the email
        • For Windows, press Ctrl-V
        • For Mac, press Command-V
