Add an email signature in Outlook for Windows (classic)

Takes about two minutes. Where a step says to copy your signature, use the Copy signature button in Sigture's export dialog — or your personal signature page if your team sent you one.

  1. 1

    In Sigture, open Export and click “Copy signature”.

  2. 2

    In Outlook, go to File → Options → Mail → Signatures…

  3. 3

    Click “New”, name it (e.g. “Work”), and click into the big edit box.

  4. 4

    Paste with Ctrl+V. Your signature appears with full formatting.

  5. 5

    Under “Choose default signature”, pick it for New messages and Replies/forwards.

  6. 6

    Click OK. Compose a new email to confirm the rendering.

Good to know

Classic Outlook renders with Microsoft Word's engine — your export already includes VML buttons and MSO table fixes for it.

If images show as broken on first open, click “Download pictures” once; Outlook then remembers your choice for the sender.

Advanced: signatures live in %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Signatures — you can drop the exported .htm there under the same name Outlook created.
