Hi Ian, as a matter of fact, the transport of emails does *not* support a character style so it is the responsibility of the receiver of a mail to display it in an appropiate format. I am communicating with you with a hand-coded mail-client, so I don't even know, what you mean with "right-hand side of the delphi-en online Web page". (Btw which url?)
