Mail Designer Pro 2.6
We’re excited to launch Mail Designer Pro 2.6 — it’s got some great new features and a lot of improvements we hope you’re going to love. Let’s dive in:
iPad Pro and iPhone SE Device Previews
We’ve added three new mobile device previews for the latest iOS devices: Make sure your newsletters look great on the 12.9” iPad Pro, 9.7” iPad Pro as well as on the iPhone SE.
Zoom option for Mobile Previews
Mail Designer Pro 2.6 introduces a new scaling option, so you can fit any iOS device on your Mac’s screen. Want to check out your design on the 12.9” iPad, but using an 11” MacBook Air? No problem.
Smart Link Checking
The built-in preflight feature goes through your design and checks things like image size, retina image and all links. We’ve made the link checking much smarter and fixed a few cases where custom URL types weren’t checked correctly.
Improved HTML engine
A lot of work has gone into the new HTML engine in Mail Designer Pro 2.6: We’ve redesigned the way our layout is built and fixed a number of alignment issues, such as those that you could occasionally see in Outlook.
Here are some of the specifics that have been improved with the improved HTML engine:
- Outlook alignment bugs have been fixed
- You can use % and & reliably in custom link types
- Improved Gmail support when sending via MailChimp
- Mobile-only layout blocks no longer show up in Yahoo webmail
- Fixed an issue that could cause missing images in MailChimp
- A bug that could cause images not to appear in Outlook when sent via external services has been fixed
- Link formatting has been fixed, so removing the underline and changing link colors work as you’d expect
We’ve also taken steps to prevent redundant style tags that were occasionally generated by the styles editor. So the HTML is cleaner, more concise and improves compatibility in all email clients!
Let us know what you think and if you have any feedback for the next version of Mail Designer Pro.
Thanks!
