So I guess the main problem is the recipient doesn't have the font
installed on their machine which is causing the problem.  All of our
signatures are using the basic font "arial" with some hyperlinks.  Maybe
it was just an anomaly.

Exactly correct. I've found that when I send an email to someone outside
of our company, when they reply, the script signature I use comes back
as non script in a totally different font. It's obviously a question of
what the receipient is using as a email client and the fonts available.

What James is getting at is often people use fancy script fonts in the
signature, not realizing that they translate to something else if the
recipient doesn't have the exact match.

I'm not sure.  The recipient is outside of our company and could be
using webmail from the ISP.  I think when the recipient initially reads
the email, the signature is fine but when they reply it gets messed up.

Does the recipient have the same font installed?

Hello,

 

I have a user who reported that her signature font was very large when
the recipient replied back to her email.  The signature in the original
email that was sent looks fine but once the recipient replies back, the
original signature is magnified many times.  I've actually seen this
happen before with replies on this message board.  Does anyone have any
idea's why Outlook is doing this?  She is using Outlook 2007 with
Exchange 2003.


Thanks,

Jimmy
