Odd Stationery Tutorial

The stationery that is uploaded in the File Cabinet of Odd People is Outlook Express stationery. This stationery is in an eml format. It is best used from a folder situated on your desktop. When you open up your folder and click on your stationery, a "New Message Window" will pop up and you may use your stationery as you normally would.

Creating a Folder on Your Desktop:

1. Right click in a blank area on your desktop.
2. Click on "New".
3. Select "Folder".
4. A new folder is now on your desktop. Rename it anything you want. (type the new name and then hit enter) If it’s for stationery, call it Stationery. Makes sense, doesn’t it?

To download the Odd Stationery:

1. Right click on your selected stationery.
2. Click on "Save Target As"
3. Next add this after the file name: .eml
4. Change file type to: All Files

To use the Odd Stationery:

1. Open your folder where you have placed the stationery.
2. Click on the one you want to use.
3. A "New Message" window will open and you can use the stationery as you would normally. You will see the words "Type Text Here" in the body of the stationery. Just start your typing before the words and later delete them. They are there to lock in the font so it won’t revert back to the default of Arial 10.

If you have any troubles, let me know.
