Ifitisimpossibletomakeatextfitwithintheboxwiththegivenminimumandmaximumfontsize,this
willbereportedasanerrorduringapreflight(see"Testingscripts"onpage816).
How it works
WhentheCopyFitfeatureisactivated,thefontsizeiscalculatedfortheentireBox.Elementsinside
thatBoxgetafontsizerelativetotheBox.Thismeansthattheirrelativeproportionsaremaintained.
How to position elements
Topositionelementsinrelationtoeachotherinatemplate,youcanwrapthoseelementsinaTableor
Box(see"Table"onpage655and"Boxes"onpage623),and/orusetheSpacingpropertyoftheele-
ments.TheSpacingpropertycanalsobeusedtoindentelementsorcreateahangingparagraphor
image;see"Spacing"onpage707.
AligningobjectswithanabsolutepositioniseasywiththeAlignmentbuttons.Guideshelptoalignele-
mentsaswell;see"Aligningobjects"onthenextpage.
Thetop,right,bottom,andleftpropertiesspecifyoffsetsfromtheedgesoftheelement'scontaining
block.
WheretouseTablesandBoxes
Tables,PositionedBoxesandInlineBoxescanhelppositionelementsinrelationtootherelements.It
dependsonthecontextwhichelementisbesttouse.
IntheEmailcontext,Tablesarethemostreliablewaytopositiontextandimages;see"Designingan
Emailtemplate"onpage472and"Table"onpage655.
IntheWebcontext,InlineBoxesarethepreferredwaytopositionelements;see"Boxes"onpage623.
Tablesshouldonlybeusedtodisplaydatainatabularformat,nottopositiontextandimages.Tables
usedinwebpagestopositionelements(andoften,PositionedBoxes)makethosepageslessaccess-
ibletouserswithdisabilitiesandtoviewersusingsmallerdevices.
InthePrintcontext,Tablescanbeusedtopositionelements,aswellasbothtypesofBoxes;see
"Table"onpage655and"Boxes"onpage623.
Spacing
Boxes,tables,paragraphsandmanyotherelementshaveamarginandpadding.
Themarginisthewhitespacearoundanelement,outsidetheborder.Itisusedtopositionanelement
inrelationtotheotherelements,byputtingmorespacebetweentheelementanditssurroundingele-
ments.
Thepaddingisthespacebetweenanelement'scontentanditsborder.Itisusedtopositionthecontent
oftheelementinsidetheborder.
