How to Create New Custom Stationary for Outlook

Virtually everyone today uses email. Wouldn’t it be truly great if you could make your emails stand out from everyone else’s? Of course it would and you know it. If you use Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express there is a way you can. You can create your very own personalized stationery that is unique to only you. Here is how it’s done.

1. Click and open your Outlook mail application. At the top left go to “tools” and click then, go to “options.” Click the “send” tab and make sure that “HTML” is checked or you will not be able to create your stationery.


2. Pick the “compose” tab next to pick your font. After picking the font click on the mail checkbox in the stationery section and hit the “select” button that opens. You can either pick one already in Outlook or you can click the “create new” button and make one of your own. Just follow the directions.


3. Look at Outlook 2007 or later and you will see there are some small changes. Go through the “tools,” “options,” and here you will find different tabs. Click on the “mail format” tab and choose HTML as before. In the same window, you will find the fonts and a “stationery picker” button. The buttons vary a little but they do the same things as before with a few more choices.


4. Use of the later Outlooks has increased the ability to have more random stationery choices and you can add more to the choices such as pictures and business logo’s and such. You will find that the choices are limitless and this truly gives you the ability to create that “custom look” to your personal or business stationery.
