Stationery

[irmamar]

What does "stationery" mean in an email? A friend of mine told me that we used the same stationery in an email, but I don't understand it, since I think that stationery means paper and such things one uses to write, but in an email...

Does somebody understand it? She is British (for if it serves as a clue )

Thanks

Tienes razón en cuanto a lo que significa la palabra. Yo tampoco sé qué quería decir tu amiga.

I told her that I didn't understand it. I guess it was the format (formato).

Es el diseño del mensaje, que incluye el diseño de fondo, la fuente (color, tipo y tamaño), alineación del texto, etc.

...como el papel para escribir cartas, con colores y dibujitos.

Sí, ya me imaginaba que por ahí iban los tiros.

It refers to the templates and backgrounds ... you use when writing your mails (to make them more attractive-looking).

Eso pues, que escojo un cliente de emails que muestra sólo el texto así que no tengo ni idea de quien pone fondos etc.

Because of the fact that you like text instead of gfx, I guess black thread is relatively a young concept in comparison...
