Hello,
I need to send a mass email, so I prepared it in Word with formatting, etc. Now I want to send it, but I can't use it as the body of text in my email.

    Hello,

    You copy the content from the Word file and then paste it into the email.
    To maintain the formatting, you need to attach the Word file.

    Reading the responses is good... Responding afterwards, for the sake of politeness, is better...

    I already tried to copy and paste, but it's impossible to recover the formatting. I tried copying and pasting and attaching the file, but the formatting is distorted.
    I just want to send the email without attachments and with only the text, formatted as well.

    From Word, you save your page in "Web Page" (HTML) format
    and you put the code in the body of your message...
    Depending on the web clients, the insertion mode is different, but you should find it in the help section of the software you are using.

    Hello,

    The weight is not the issue but the format.
    As Contrariness suggested, HTML is needed... Then it depends on the recipients' email services and what they've decided (for example, to receive everything in plain text to avoid viruses).

    If you have, for instance, Office 365 and you use Outlook, normally if the document is properly made with a theme (font and colors), the document will be compliant IN OUTLOOK! But then, who knows how it will arrive depending on the different email configurations of the recipients...

    You can also send it in image format. That way, you will retain the formatting... But similarly, the image might very well be an attachment and not in the body of the email, depending on the recipient's email configuration.
