Managing Email Marketing Libraries

An Email Marketing library can include:

Documents. Documents such as text files, Microsoft Word files, PDF files, and other types of files. When authors create emails, they can include links to these documents by clicking the New Hyperlink icon in the HTML editor.
Email Templates. HTML documents that Email Marketing authors can load into the editor and use as templates for their marketing emails. When authors create emails, they can load a template by clicking the Open icon in the HTML editor, and then use the editor to modify the template as necessary.
Images. Graphics in JPG or GIF format that Email Marketing authors can include in their marketing emails. When authors create emails, they can include these graphics by clicking the Picture icon in the HTML editor.

NOTE:  Before loading documents into a library, you must create them using the appropriate application. Before loading images into a library, you must create them using any graphics program and save them in JPG or GIF format.
