Knowledge Base: How do I use the HTML editor?

A rich HTML editor is provided to edit HTML content of your campaigns without needing to know the details of HTML code. To keep things simple, only a few basic options are available to manipulate content. These options include bold, italic, strikethrough, font color, justification, lists, paragraph style, font size, insert link, insert image, undo, and spell check.

The best way to use this editor is either starting from scratch with simple formatted text and images or editing an existing HTML template. We do not recommend using this editor for designing complex HTML emails, since the features are limited. We've also noticed some problems in Safari, as well as Internet Explorer, when security settings are set too high. Please contact us if you experience problems.

Inserting an image

Inserting an image is an easy process. Just place the cursor where you would like to insert the image and click the image button. As a result, the following window will display:

If this is your first time inserting an image, you can click the Upload image button. If you already have an image, you can select on on the left and click insert. This will automatically insert the image where your cursor was located. When uploading an image, you will see a new screen that looks like this:

Click Browse to select the image on your computer, then click Upload to upload the image to the service. When you are finished, the image will appear on the first screen. Click Insert to insert the image into the editor.

Advanced Image Editing

In some cases, you may want to resize an image or move it around the page. By right clicking on the image you can access the image properties. Click on the option that says Set Image Properties.

After doing so, you should see a new window:

In this screen, you can align the image, resize it with the width/height option, create padding or spacing around the image, or even apply a border and border color. When you are finished, click OK to change the options.
