== FAQ == === Q1: Why do my GIFs not animate in Outlook? === They may only display the first frame due to limitations in older Outlook versions. === Q2: How can I ensure my buttons render correctly? === Use the "Support of Outlook" toggle in the '''Email Designer''' and consider using image-based buttons. === Q3: What should I do if my images appear distorted? === Ensure that all images are sized between 400 and 650 pixels wide to prevent unwanted scaling. === Q4: How do I add a fallback color for background images? === Go to the '''Global Settings''' in the Email Designer and specify a background color alongside your background image. === Q5: What are the best practices for designing emails for Outlook? === Simplify layouts, avoid justified text, and ensure images and buttons are correctly sized and styled. === Q6: How can I test my emails before sending them? === Send test emails to different email client versions, particularly various Outlook versions to check for compatibility. === Q7: Is there a way to prevent duplicated buttons when emails are forwarded? === While there is no definitive solution, using image-based buttons can help mitigate this issue.
