Scenario
You wish to create an email signature from scratch.
Resolution
You can easily create an email signature using tables - they are a great way to build and control the email signature design, using rows, columns, and padding to add space and give the signature template a professional feel.
To create a skeleton table:
- From the All Signatures tab, click CREATE SIGNATURE.
The Signature Designer screen is displayed with the Create New window open.
- Click CREATE BLANK SIGNATURE.
The Table Shape window is displayed.
When designing a signature layout, it is often useful to work within a table with columns and rows representing the required signature shape.
- If you want to base your signature on one of the pre-defined table layouts, select the required table layout and click Yes.
If you don't want to base your signature on a pre-defined table layout and prefer to work with the other table options, click No. - In the Signature Designer, from the left-hand pane, expand the Tables section.
Example: -
From the options available, drag and drop the required table into the signature canvas/griddled background.
Example:
If you don't prefer the available layouts, you can create your own custom layout.
Example:
The Custom... window is displayed.
The custom table allows you to use more columns or rows (maximum of 20 cells).
- As required, enter the Columns and Rows.
Example: -
Click OK to create the specified table and close the Custom... window.
To create a signature skeleton for your layout, you can use more than one table for the structure.
For example:
- Drag and drop a table shape into the signature canvas/griddled background:
- Drag and drop another table shape:
- Drag and drop another table shape:
- You can add in the elements: fields, images, social media, and use the table properties to add widths, add space and stretch the inner tables to create a structure you can use throughout.
