Tip of the Week: FormatIt.com

Ever need to format text to a certain line length for a plain text email campaign? Try FormatIt.com.  This fr*ee utility formats text to a specified column width while preserving the original paragraph endings. All too often, email clients leave the lines too long when no attempt is made to format the text. This results in that famous long... short, long... short condition we have all seen, as seen below:

While e-mail generally look normal
when composing,
when the recipient gets it, it many
times ends
up looking like this, which is rather
annoying
and terribly unprofessional.

The service also offers the ability to filter out any unwanted characters, such as << or >> marks found in some forwarded emails. Start formatting your copy here.
