Hi there, I'm doing a newsletter for my place of work and for some reason formatting is coming out weird - when I indent an item it looks like on the preview but when I send a test to myself the first line of the indented text is not lined up with the rest of the text. I've tried copying the text, deleting the text box, and re-pasting the text, then re-indenting, and I'm still having this issue. Thanks. -Kevin

Hello @KevinP9329 ,
Unfortunately, Outlook won't always follow the indentation rules set, due to how Word reads HTML. While our devs are trying to work with Outlook's devs on this, the only real workaround for this would be to take a screencap of the list as it's supposed to look, and replace the typed out list with that image.
For more info on common display issues in different email programs, such as with text formatting or images, I'd recommend taking a look at this post.

In our case images that are placed within a text box (dragging the image block in builder so the highlight shows in upper right of the text box) no longer align within that text box. Instead in Outlook they appear left-aligned above the content of the text box, even though they look find in preview. Is this the same issue? I did not see it mentioned in the linked post. Thanks.
Appreciate your reply and for the info.
