I just joined a small NGO as an intern and have been helping to lighten the load with a lot of the blog posting.
Every week we send out an email and the team is very particular about formatting it appropriately, as they should be. The problem is, we format it Word (as a .doc) and when we get it out we like it, we copy and paste it into a new blank Constant Contact email template. Constant Contact is a service for mailing out newsletters and whatnot and from what I understand lots of NGOs use it. Pretty much all of the formatting gets lost, and we have to re-do spacing, links, et cetera. If I'm not mistaken, the same thing happens with WordPress too.
I would save them a ton of time if I could find a way to format it as they want in Word and then copy and paste (or export and import) into Constant Contact and WordPress while preserving all the formatting. I should stress that we're not doing anything too complexsometimes we'll include a few photos with center-justified captions, we'll have story titles be in a larger font size, and that's about it.
Any suggestions for how to edit our weekly newsletter in Word and somehow get it into Constant Contact and/or WordPress without needing to reformat everything? Thanks!
