Hi Gang,

I've created a standard signature to be added to all of my emails. The problem is that the signature font is different from the font used in my email content, thus it isn't a professional/finished look.

How do I change the font on the signature so that it matches my email content font?

How to create signature with optional image.

  • click on 'Write' to open new write message
