Outlook Email Not Rendering Correctly

Hello,

I have created an email template within Marketo. When previewing and sending tests it looks great in all platforms, (mobile Gmail, Yahoo etc) except for Outlook. I know Outlook is always wonky when it comes to HTML and emails, but in this case it seems worse than normal. I've talked to a few developers on my team and they cannot seem to solve. Was wondering if anyone has a solution. 

Screenshots attached below:

Outlook Rendering

How it previews in Marketo:

Hi Sanford,

I attached some images of how the email is previewing in Marketo vs how it is rendering in Outlook. Let me know if this helps.

Please remove the attachments and paste the images inline. Not all Community users can see attachments.

Re: Outlook Email Not Rendering Correctly

Looking at your code it is my recommendation to rename all images replacing any spaces or '%20' values with an underscore ( _ ) or dash ( - ) then re-upload them to Marketo. Then update your code accordingly. 

When troubleshooting this type of issue- I always check and make sure there are no image names with a space because it can cause formatting issues in Outlook.   After spending hours tracking this down in the past, it's now the first thing I check.

Re: Outlook Email Not Rendering Correctly

Hey James,

Outlook can be finnicky, but at a quick scan I'm going to guess that one of the issues you're having here is because your root table wrapping all content has a minimum width set, but no maximum width set. With the main setting at 100% width and nothing to max that width out, this is likely to be the main culprit of the issues you're seeing.

To ensure emails render well on Outlook you often also need to be using MSO conditional html within your email, I can't see any conditional code in your template. 

I would start by adding a max-width to your wrapping table, and, if you continue to have issues, you may need to look at implementing some MSO conditional code.

Hope that helps.

Re: Outlook Email Not Rendering Correctly

I'm not sure if this is allowed (and if not, please let me know) but there are some great services that aren't too expensive that help with exactly this sort of thing. One in particular that I use, EmailOnAcid, has an option to upload your HTML and it will determine for you what will flag in certain ESPs (Gmail, Hotmail, Outlook, etc.). It will then give you a corrected version of the code so you can plug it back in to Marketo. Basically, it saves a lot of legwork and helps you ensure your marketing is hitting equally across the board. 

Re: Outlook Email Not Rendering Correctly

You need to format your image correctly and use supported inline CSS. This is your code for the top banner:

<img style="text-decoration: none; -ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic; border: 0; height: auto; width: 100%; max-width: 500px; display: block;" src="https://programs.johnhancockinsurance.com/rs/014-PBZ-107/images/email-hero-1.jpg">


You should use this code instead:

<img class"classForResizingImg" width="500" border="0" alt="Image Description" style="text-decoration:none; -ms-interpolation-mode:bicubic; border:0; height:auto; width:500px; display:block;" src="https://programs.johnhancockinsurance.com/rs/014-PBZ-107/images/email-hero-1.jpg">‍‍

- You need a width attribute (width="500")

- Do not use a height attribute

- You need a class to resize your images (See below)

- You need a border attribute (border="0")
- You need an alt attribute (alt="Image description")
- You need an inline CSS width too (style="width:500px"....)

- You need an inline CSS height too (style="height:auto"....)

- You can't use max-width in inline CSS, it's not supported

And here is an example of what you need in your Head CSS to resize your image:

@media only screen and (max-width:700px) {
img.classForResizingImg {width:100%!important; height:auto!important;}
}
</style>‍‍‍‍

Hope it helps,

Eric

Re: Outlook Email Not Rendering Correctly

Also, you use a really large image. 1920x1042 px for an email is large and heavy. You can resize your image at 2x. For example, if your banner is 500px wide, have a physical width of 1000px max.
