Formatting issues between Outlook, notepad & gmail

[banas]

For work I do a lot of copy/paste in email. Recently we switched over to using Gmail instead of using our own mail server. Since then my copy/paste world has gone to hell in a handbasket

I'm pretty particular about what I send to our customers and have always spent extra time on making sure everything is formatted correctly.

Now using Gmail everything has extra spaces between paragraphs or at times even has spaces around letters like 'e' in the middle of a word so it looks like I was drunk when I wrote these people back.

I just read about the issues with notepad and formatting.

But how can I solve my issues without rewriting everything from scratch?

Can I somehow copy into word and not use notepad anymore to get rid of these extra spaces?

I would appreciate any advice or suggestions

Thanks!

Did you try writing in Word and then pasting from it to Gmail? If so, do the formatting issues remain?
