I moving from classic outlook to Thunderbird and I am having trouble finding how to change fonts and color in signatures for my emails. I do not do html it is a simple signature; name company name and phone numbers. I search and found no help. Is there a way to change color and font in the reply to an email? Sorry I know this sounds simple but I have been using outlook since it came out so this is similar but just enough to give me trouble. Thank you for any help, rick

Following Sfhowes' advice, here are specifics as he indicated: And I attached examples of my own setting of Calibri 14 as my default. Here goes:

  1. in Tools>settings>general, set your default font.
  2. then click the advanced button. Notice the drop-down menu at top. It probably says 'latin' or 'other writing systems' - this is IMPORTANT:
  3. select 'latin from that menu, set your desired font and font size settings, click OK,
  4. select 'otherwritingsystems' from the drop-down menu and set the IDENTICAL settings to what you did for Latin, and then click OK. In attached screenshots you will see my latin and otherwritingsystem match. Notice I also set monospace font.
  5. if you have account set to compose HTML, then set that in tools>settings>composition to variable-width and medium font. (You would only change the HTML font setting if your intent is for recipient to receive your preferred font - not my personal recommendation.) To clarify, Thunderbird allows sender to use HTML font for themselves, yet freeing recipient to use recipient's preferred font and font size.
  6. In settings>composition, set Sending Format to 'automatic' (just my preference, not required)

NOTE: if font size is still too small, try a larger number, such as 20. the numbers in thunderbird are points, not pixels.

Colors and fonts are HTML attributes. Thunderbird supports such signatures, but the user is responsible for the HTML If you are not comfortable with HTML, there are some websites that help design signatures for free. If you have an email sent from your Outlook account, the HTML is probably be extracted and pasted into Thunderbird's signature field. If you can locate that and post the contents, someone here may be able to assist.

Best to not import html from any Office app, but instead create the signature with the html message composer:

You suggest things that are not coming up in my Thunderbird.

You can create a signature file by using the Thunderbird composer. As an example, open a new HTML-formatted message window in Thunderbird (File > New > Message) or click on Write located on the'Mail Toolbar'. Make sure that the formatting toolbar is displayed. There is no formatting tool bar HtmlToolbar

(If it is not displayed, you are composing a message formatted in text, not HTML. To change to HTML, select Options > Delivery Format > Rich

Above option is also not visible. I guess I just i am not cut out for Thunderbird. still trying Version 128 I think

I found the error I made and thank you for the help. One last question about signature it looks like it is double spaced, is there a way to single space this I didn't find an option for that.

Thank you for your help.

Settings/Composition/HTML Style, uncheck 'Use Paragraph format...' to force single spacing after pressing Enter for new paragraph.

Display fonts are set in Settings/General/Language & Appearance, Advanced..., for Fonts for: Latin and Fonts for: Other Writing Systems. Keep all other font settings at defaults.
