If you'd like to insert content in a tabular format, this should be done in tables rather than spacing in between 2 columns. Many email clients will ignore CSS unless it's used Inline. Because of this, we recommend that you code your emails using in-line CSS only. Avoid copying text and/or images from an external source such as MS Word and pasting it directly into Benchmark Email's Editor. Instead, paste it into Notepad first, and then transfer it from Notepad into Editor. Your email content should consist of 60% text and 40% images (best practices). Avoid nesting unwanted duplicate tags to the content. Avoid using scripting in the code. Avoid the use of <p> tags. Instead, use <br> tags as <p> tags may result in spacing issues when viewing from various email clients. Avoid using background images in your email as most email clients block them for security purposes. Design your emails to meet the 600 x 800 standard.

當我列印電子報時，電子報的背景設計和顏色都沒有出現。我該怎麼做？
如果電子報的背景圖片和顏色沒有列印出來，你可能必須更改列印設定。通常列印背景的功能在系統預設值中是關閉的，目的是避免印表機墨水消耗過多。依據瀏覽器的不同，列印出來的字體也可能會有差異。 根據你所使用的瀏覽器更改設定： Internet Explorer 7 Internet Explorer 8 Internet Explorer 9 Firefox 3.6x & 4.0 Safari 4 & 5 Google Chrome Internet Explorer 7 在工具列選單中，點選[網際網路選項] ，並點選[進階]。 在[列印]下方的[設定]方格中，勾選[列印背景色彩與影像]，然後點選[確定]。 Internet Explorer 8 在[檔案]中點選[設定列印格式]。如果你找不到[檔案]，請按ALT。 在[設定列印格式]的對話方塊中，勾選[列印背景色彩與影像]。 點選[確定]並關閉[設定列印格式]對話方塊。 再次列印網頁。 Internet Explorer 9 [檔案]中點選[設定列印格式]。如果你找不到[檔案]，請按ALT。 在[設定列印格式]的對話方塊中，勾選[列印背景色彩與影像]。 點選[確定]並關閉[設定列印格式]對話方塊。 再次列印網頁。 Firefox 3.6x & 4.0 在PC中列印網頁背景 點選[檔案] > [頁面設定]。 在[頁面設定]的視窗中，選擇[格式與選項]索引標籤。 在選項下方，勾選[列印背景（顏色與圖片）] 再次列印網頁。 在Mac中列印網頁背景 在你想列印的頁面中，點選[檔案] > [列印]。 選擇印表機，並點選更多列印選項的箭頭。 勾選[列印背景圖片]和[列印背景顏色]。 Safari 4 & 5 在你想列印的頁面中，點選[檔案] > [列印]。 選擇印表機，並點選更多列印選項的箭頭。 勾選[列印背景]。 Google Chrome 很可惜，Google Chrome沒有可以列印背景顏色和影像的選項。
