Design HTML images in Outlook 2007 mail messages

I receive the HTML newsletter as email messages using Microsoft Outlook 2007. There are several images in the email that are organized using the 'width' and 'height' attributes of the 'img' tag.

When I try to open the html code in any browser, the images and text are ordered correctly. But in Outlook 2007, it got messed up, and images are displayed in random sizes, even if the height and width are explicitly specified in the HTML code.

Can someone tell me how to correctly display images in Outlook 2007 so that formatting is not confused?

For Outlook

<img style="height:30; width:.."/>

does not work.

It should be given as:

 <img height="30" width="70" .../>

I think I have a solution: Go to Word> Word Options> Advanced> General / Web Settings> Images: If the target monitor has a value of 72 for pixels per inch, change it to 96 . Restart Word and Outlook.

This finally fixed it for me. Hope this helps.

Outlook 2007 seems to respect the actual width and height of the image over the declared width and height of the image in cases where the declared width or height of the image is close to or equal to 0. (And Outlook does not respect the width and height css attributes.) It’s best to change the size of the images in question so that they actually have the height and width that you declare, instead of resizing them.
