Making Stationary for Outlook Express

You will have to actually Make the background in a program such as Paint Shop Pro. The standard size for the backgrounds are 1245 width x 300 height (pixels). After you have finished your background, save it to your harddrive where you remember where it is *S*. Now we are ready to make the stationary.

Open up your Outlook Express and click on the black arrow beside the "Create Mail" button.



Click on the "Select Stationary"



Click on "Create New"



Click on "Next"



Click on the "Browse" button.



Find where you saved your background image and click "Open". In the "Tile"
window make sure that you have "Entire Page" showing in the window.
Click "Next". The following window will then pop up. Select the font you wish
to use with this stationary and the size of font to be used. Select if you wish
it bold or italic. Click Next.



Select your left margin and top margin. Make sure your left margin is wide
enough to clear your side border.



Give your stationary a name and click "Finish".



This is what your new stationary now looks like.


The name you gave your stationary is now listed under the "Create Mail" black
arrow. All you have to do now to use it is just select that background.
