Hi VishalRajwadi,

Sorry for the inconvenience, however, this is the feature limitation. To mail merge text content, it’s better to use Word app instead of Publisher.

To redirect your concern, you can share the good idea to our UserVoice. Many good suggestions have been taken in this way. Your voice is always very important to us.

@DavidF2,

Thanks for the reply. However, the settings to File > Options > Advanced > Web Options > Email option, uncheck send as a single JPEG doesn’t change anything based on my test. And on another thread you redirect to, even we only insert a simple text box with pure text without any further format, they will still be changed to image instead of text when recipient receive them. I’m afraid there’s no settings to change this behavior.

Thanks for your understanding,

Rena

If just some of your email body is being converted to an image, then read this recent post where we discuss the issue in more detail:
