Stationery: how to create MS-Outlook letterheads and templates
Introduction
Despite the abundance of Outlook add-ons and plug-ins for adding letterheads and templates to your
emails, MS-Outlook by itself offers an easy way to create and use your own letterhead and message
templates. It may not be the way you imagined, but it works.
What's the point?
MS-Outlook offers two ways of creating message templates: using the Stationery feature or using
Signatures . However, by using Stationery templates you can not insert a picture as an image within the
template (not as a background picture), so you can only create templates with background images. As a
result you can't have a simple letterhead image and a default greetings text inserted into every outgoing
email.
TIP : you can use the Signature features to create email message templates or letterheads, although the
Signature function was not necessarily designed for letterheads.

If you wish to add a letterhead to your message template, then right click within the Signature text edit
area , then select "Insert Image..." .
Browse to select the desired letterhead image, add an alternate text to it, modify the layout so the
alignment is set to "top", then click on "Ok" . You can use any image editor to create a simple, nice looking
letterhead image.
If you wish to add a default text to each outgoing email, like a text signature or a default greeting
message, then add the text below the letterhead image, on the signature text edit area. You can also add a
link to your site, by selecting the text above which the link will apply, then right click and choose "Edit
Hyperlink" .
