Hi - Is there a way of doing this in Office 365 desktop app with the lastest version of windows 10. I'd like to add a .htm file to this app but this tutorial seems not to apply to the 365 version of the desktop Outlook app?

Hi emilymaidman,
Would you tell me what errors occur with following the method introduced on this webpage? It’s odd this method works fine in Windows 10 in my computer.

Hi sonali,
When importing signatures, the images are often blurry. You need to resize them manually. Below article may solve your problem.

Many thanks! Finally found what I was looking for. However, Outlook adds the white lines / spaces between the blocks.
