Although I personally dislike HTML email, I do agree that it is probably better for newsletters, so I'll give a reluctant +1. > > Please find attached draft version of newsletter.

You might like to discuss it with the folk at Sun who do the regular newsletters for the various Sun groups and networks. I know, for example, that the Sun Australia/New Zealand newsletter is at the very least done with a regular template, and quite possibly uses a specific tool. Another possibility would be to see how producing a newsletter with OO.o and then exporting it to HTML (and possibly running it through Tidy afterwards) might work. > > However please review my draft and send me your opinion whether it makes > sense to turn the OO.o newsletter to HTML > > Regards > > Kay -- Alex Fisher Co-Lead, CD-ROM Project OpenOffice.org Marketing Community Contact Australia/New Zealand http://distribution.openoffice.org/cdrom/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
