# Disable text resizing of HTML mail in Outlook.com

Hi!\

I'm struggling to [disable](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/12901/how-to-disable-enable-input-box-in-aspx-with-value-from-sql) the [automatic](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/145518/what-automatic-repeat-request-arq) text/font formatting that [Outlook](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/135055/how-to-change-your-account-password-in-outlook-com-toll-free-number-1-844-832-5538).com applies to [HTML](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/1530/design-a-simple-stylish-calculator-using-html-css-and-javascript) e-mails.

I have tried using:

-webkit-text-size-adjust:none;-ms-text-size-adjust:none;-moz-text-size-adjust:none;text-size-adjust:none;

and then, just:

-webkit-text-size-adjust:none;

as an [inline](https://www.mindstick.com/interview/1012/describe-the-difference-between-inline-and-code-behind) [style](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/126300/apa-citation-style-get-to-know-about-it-for-your-next-assignment) on all paragraph blocks but unfortunately it is not being recognised by outlook.

This particular newsletter is fairly tight in [terms](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/31698/what-is-the-real-value-of-us-dollars-in-terms-of-indian-rupee) of [layout](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12853/android-layout-and-its-type) with little [solid](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/11717/traits-of-a-solid-digital-marketing-company) colour or spacing to accommodate the formatting Outlook is insisting on.

The full text [block](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/157599/explain-the-process-control-block-pcb-in-the-operating-system) is:

```
<p style="font-family:arial, sans-serif; color:#FFFFFF; font-size:14px; padding-left: 10px;padding-right:10px; -webkit-text-size-adjust:none;-ms-text-size-adjust:none;-moz-text-size-adjust:none;text-size-adjust:none;">Hi $$first_name$$</p>       <p style="font-family:arial, sans-serif; color:#FFFFFF; font-size:14px; padding-left: 10px;padding-right:10px; -webkit-text-size-adjust:none;-ms-text-size-adjust:none;-moz-text-size-adjust:none;text-size-adjust:none;">       To get your weekend off to the best possible start, we'd like to invite you to read all your incoming messages for free this evening.</p>       <p style="font-family:arial, sans-serif; color:#FFFFFF; font-size:14px; padding-left: 10px;padding-right:10px; -webkit-text-size-adjust:none;-ms-text-size-adjust:none;-moz-text-size-adjust:none;text-size-adjust:none;">Just log in as normal between 6pm and 8pm and you'll automatically be able to open all your mail.</p>       <table width="381" align="center"><tbody><tr>        <td align="left"><a style="text-decoration:underline; color:#FFFFFF;" target="_blank" title="Upgrade Now" href=""><img style="display:block;" src="http://s.wldcdn.net/newsletters/uploads/assets/000/028/131/8c6cbc24743881ebc812970367245b16_original.png?1376643494" alt="" /></a></td>        </tr></tbody></table>       <p style="font-family:arial, sans-serif; color:#FFFFFF; font-size:14px; padding-left: 10px;padding-right:10px; -webkit-text-size-adjust:none;-ms-text-size-adjust:none;-moz-text-size-adjust:none;text-size-adjust:none;">See you later,</p>       <p style="font-family:arial, sans-serif; color:#FFFFFF; font-size:14px; padding-left: 10px;padding-right:10px; -webkit-text-size-adjust:none;-ms-text-size-adjust:none;-moz-text-size-adjust:none;text-size-adjust:none;">The $$site_name$$ Team.</p>
```

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi!

I had a similar problem, with Outlook itself, not the online service. I ended up not using <p>-tags at all. All content went into table cells (<td>s) instead.
