Importing Your Letterhead into the Software

The software tool has many unique features which set it apart from any other way of using letterheads in email. Our software tool does not just paste the graphics into the email, it actually embeds it and transparently overcomes a number of technical problems such as allowing you to reply to an email and embed the letterhead. Although the software is incredibly easy to use, it is in fact highly sophisticated software which overcomes technical problems without you realising they occurred!

(Please note the illustrations shown are of the software running on Windows XP. If you have an earlier version of Windows the software will take on the look and feel of that version of Windows. ie. square edges rather than the rounded edges of Windows XP)

We are sure you will find it simple to use, and the following instructions will allow you to be up and running in minutes. However we recommend you familiarise yourself with these instructions first

Step 2


The Software Tool
 
     

First you should open up Outlook or Outlook Express, and then click on the yellow desktop icon with the Advenzia "A" logo. Automatically you will see our software on your screen. You can move the software tool about the screen, and by clicking on the the minimize button indicated by a "-" in the top right hand corner make it minimize onto the Windows Taskbar at the bottom right of your screen. When you click on our yellow icon the software tool will automatically reapear at full size.

NB. Before proceding to the next steps, it is a good idea to select the labelled theme (normally Advenzia) from the drop down menu rather than a blank screen.


Import the Letterhead

Your letterhead will have been supplied as a file with an extension called packed letterhead (.plh). This is a unique format we invented which allows us to combine html and graphics all into the letterhead file that we send you, and this helps keep the installation and storage of the letterheads simple!

In the top left hand corner of the software you will see a drop down menu named Options. Click this, an dfrom the drop down menu select import letterhead.


Select the .plh file from either your hard disk or on the CD-rom we supplied

After you have selected import letterhead from the drop down menu, a pop up box will appear. From the Look in menu at the top, or the navigation icons to the left, select the the .plh file we sent you which is your letterhead. This will of course be found where you saved it when you downloaded the files from email or from the CD-Rom we supplied you. After selecting the .plh file select the button marked open

     

Save The Letterhead Theme As

After selecting open in the previous screen you will then get a new screen which is titled "save letterhead theme as". All you have to do now is choose a file name for your letterhead and click on the save button.

 

You should now be prompted with a screen which tells you your letterhead has been successfully imported. You are now ready to use the letterhead, and from now on you will see in the theme drop down menu your letterhead.

You can import as many letterheads as you like, and they will allways be shown in the Theme drop down menu. All you now have to do is when you write an email select which one you would like to use!
