Indention Help

Hi,

I use the "indent more" and "indent less" buttons to separate and emphasize text in the HTML emails I create; however, when I send a sample to myself, the indention disappears and it blends in with the normal left hand beginning of other text. When previewing in Marketo, it shows the indention but not in my sample test emails.

Has this happened to anyone else or is there an obvious solution I am missing?


Thanks.

Can you share the HTML code of the email?

Hi Megan, you can go into the code of the email by clicking HTML and then in the paragraph tag <p style="....">, paste in

margin-left: 40px

Depending on your other formatting needs, it should look something like: <p style="margin-left: 40px; line-height: normal; padding-left: 60px;">.

Hope this helps.
