Filemaker text not being formatted when using send mail in Outlook Mac 2026 - Simple Solution

Here is how to fix Mac Filemaker text not being formatted when using send mail to Outlook Mac 2026.

This drove me crazy for a while and then I finally figured out this simple fix. 

In the old script you would format the text in this manner to show the line breaks using these symbols & ¶ to enforce the line breaks for each line you needed it on.

I simply swapped the paragrah ¶ simbol for the html <b> and it worked like a charm a very easy fix!


 " ¶ & "Hello,"


NEW ONE  <b>

Old One ¶ 


 "<b>"Hello,"


and if you want to get fancy you can also colorize the text using html coding 

"<b>Hello, </b><span style=\"color: red;\">"
