Windows 10 Home, Office 2016 via Office 365. Both fully updated.
I plan to keep some of my e-mail around for quite awhile. Longer than I would expect linked images to be kept on the servers of the people who send me these e-mails.
What I have done through Outlook 2007 is embed linked images in an e-mail by making a copy of the e-mail, editing it, selecting all, cutting and pasting back into the e-mail. It worked well enough for me, and the e-mail usually looked quite close to the
original with little effort. File sizes seem to be a lot smaller than printing to XPS and I can use Outlook search to find them.
Moving next, recently, to Outlook 2016 as part of Office 365, this method is a mess. Mostly because pasting messages back into an e-mail with the Keep Source Formatting option doesn't keep formatting too well. Common fonts change on their own, like from
Calibri to Times New Roman, along with font size changes. The worst part of this is that some of these e-mails, even when saved, appear to have font sizes changing between views, without editing. Tables appear to be another problem as well, but I haven't nailed
that one down to specifics.
Does anyone know of a better way to accomplish what I am trying to do?
