I think it is great that Microsoft provide reduced prices and even free copies of the Windows 7 OS. I think that Microsoft should also consider the older generation, the ones who have supported MS during our lifetime. Not a student, but unable to work and unable to afford much of anything these days. That being said, I want to add that I, for one, believe that MS has made effort, and it has been noticed by me, to make your entire website more user friendly with easier navigation and topics, not to mention the free Security Essentials, etc. Thank you MS! Your question seems to be two parts. If you want to save your Publisher newsletter as a template you can File > Save As > Save as type: Publisher template. Then you can open that template in the future by going to New > My templates. You could also just go 'old school' and open last month's newsletter and do a Save As a new file name for the new month's newsletter. Perhaps just add a date to the file name. As per delivering that newsletter to your email recipient there is no practical way of sending a multi-page newsletter as the body of an email message. You would have to convert the publication to one page and you would have to have the same version of Outlook as Publisher as your default email client. Try Microsoft Edge A fast and secure browser that's designed for Windows 10 No thanks Get started. Office templates & themes. Templates by app. Free newsletter templates are available for print newsletters and for web use. These newsletter templates are in PDF, Word, Publisher and other formats. Some sites offer dozens of layouts and others have just one or two free templates. Although some come in formats for specific software, such as Microsoft. And even if you do try this approach then chances are the HTML formatted page would not look like or maintain the formatting and layout of your original Publisher file. Publisher cannot convert every print format to a comparable HTML format. In some cases there simply is nothing equivalent in HTML format. IMHO the only way to get consistent results is to convert your newsletter to a PDF file and attach it to your email. If you write a simple but effective introduction in the body of your email message and your message is of interest and wanted by the recipient they will open the PDF. If it is spam, then it won't matter whether it is in the message body or a PDF.it will be deleted. If you have Publisher 2007 or newer then you can Save As > PDF file type. If not www.primopdf.com is my favorite freebie. Just watch carefully as you do a custom install and opt out of any bundled toolbars and other junkware. One alternative to this is to upload your PDF file to the 'cloud' somewhere such as DropBox, OneDrive or perhaps a company website, and provide a link to that file within your email message. Most browsers have a PDF 'plugin' installed and can open that PDF file within the browser. Alternatively the recipient will also have the option of downloading and opening the file in a PDF reader such as the Adobe or FoxIt readers. You also have the alternative of converting the newsletter to a multi-page website but again you would likely find some parts of your newsletter would not easily convert to HTML format. Print medium and Web medium are just too different. It is possible but you would have to learn all the methods of tweaking the formatting and layouts in order to get the Publisher web pages to render correctly and enjoy good cross browser compatibility. Again, going PDF is the easiest solution in my opinion.
