Taskbar Icons

You may need to increase the window width to see all the icons. All icons can show pop-up hints, but a hint only appears when the icon is enabled and its use is relevant to the context determined by the most recent mouse cursor action. The icon groups (over two rows) are as follows:

 
New / Open / Open Recent / Save / Save As

Copy / Paste / Cut / Paste Image / Undo / Redo / Search

Bold / Italic / Underscore / Strikeout / Subscript / Superscript

Left / Right / Center Align / Bullet List / Numbered List (Decimal / A / a / I / i )

Outdent / Indent

Insert Link / Insert Picture

Table Borders / Add / Row Insert/Delete / Col Insert/Delete / Incr/decr span / Merge Cols

Insert Special Character / View Headers Tree

Font / Font Size / Header Type

Text Color / Background Color / Border Color / HTML Tag

Canvas Type: GDI+ may support more graphics features, but GDI can make small text clearer. Most applications will see no differences,

Images

To add an icon or small fixed image to the HTML document, you can position the cursor and then use the "Paste Image" tool. The image can ve resized as needed by dragging a corner. This will embed the image into document. Do not check the 'embed' checkbox when adding an image such as a fax thumbnail which will be different for each use of the created HTML document.

To add image to document use the Add Image button. If the image is to be loaded from a machine on your network it must be located or below the COPIA\FAXFACTS folder. To set image alignment use the right-click menu on the image. To add an image from an e-mail attachment use a Content-ID link, for example cid:image2.`EM_MSGID where the message-ID will be filled from the actual ID when the e-mail is sent. The HTML code will be built from the details you supply in the dialog opened by "Add Image". See also Sending MHTML E-Mail

Working with Lists

You can select a block of lines and use the icons above to set them as a bulleted list or as a numbered list.  Or start a line with * to start a bulleted list, or with 1. to start a numbered list.

Adjusting the Raw HTML
