After a couple days of trying to figure this out via my own research, I've officially given up and have come to you experts for help.
I have a client who is requesting the following image be used for their email signature with phone number, email and website clickable, so I've resorted to slicing it up and going that route because image mapping isn't working when being sent from his Mac, although it works on his Mac when I send it via Gmail.
They are using Outlook on a Mac for their business. I'm testing this on Outlook via PC and on other clients via EmailOnAcid before delivering the end-product and having the following problems:
Outlook sent to Outlook
Outlook to Gmail
Outlook to Outlook w/ Line-Height: 0
Outlook to Gmail w/ Line-Height: 0
So essentially, everything initially looks great when sent from Outlook to Outlook, but those annoying horizontal gaps occur in Outlook to Gmail.
When I do the line-height trick, Outlook to Outlook now collapses upon itself while Gmail is now looking good.
I've tried all the tricks here - https://www.emailonacid.com/blog/article/email-development/12_fixes_for_the_image_spacing_in_html_emails - and elsewhere to no avail.
FYI The code might not be very consistent anymore because I've tried a bunch of different things, but it should give you an idea. Also, the resulting image is a bit over twice the size as what I need due to making things high-resolution in the end.
Any help would be super-appreciated... Thanks!

Try style="border-collapse: collapse !important;" on every TD element and table. That will be your first step.

How can anybody help to solve this? Here 1 px space is coming after the end of the text <td> in outlook 2016 only.
I'm developing a newsletter for Mailchimp with below HTML structure for one of the block -
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" align="center">

<a href="#" target="_blank">
<table border="0" cellpadding="9" width="100%" align="center" cellspacing="0" class="templateButton display-inline" mc:hideable>
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="middle" class="templateButtonContent"> Amazon </td>
</tr>
</table>

<tr>
<td align="center" valign="middle" class="templateButtonContent"> Sony </td>
</tr>
</table>
</a>
</td>
</tr>
The problem is that when I tested the template on Outlook, I found that my buttons [Amazon, google, nook etc] don't have LINK.
What am I missing? Can't we wrap a table in anchor tag?
HTML emails still lack the features that browsers makeup for on websites, it's like developer in HTML for IE 5. The anchor tag will not work around tables and sometimes will not even work around divs, however obviously webpages do not have these problems. This is due to the standards not really being recognised by mail clients as they are in browsers.
Try wrapping the content in the cells in just the anchor tag, around your button:
<table border="0" cellpadding="9" width="100%" align="center" cellspacing="0" class="templateButton displayinline" mc:hideable>
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="middle" class="templateButtonContent">
Sony
</td>
</tr>
</table>
I know it's not ideal, however it is a way around this problem.
I have problem for extra spacing in outlook and you can see on attached image i highlighted in red color. I used p for this image
the code is for this image
<p style=" width:125; height:125; margin:0px; padding:0px 10px 0px 10px; float:right; line-height:125px; "><img src="http://hmsdesignz.com/newsletter/6of6/images/icon.jpg" alt="" width="125" height="125" hspace="0" vspace="0" border="0" align="right" style="display:block;"/></p>
!
Please advice me how can I remove this extra spacing
Need more of the code to see how it is interacting with the html around it.
You are using a <p> tag, which I'd avoid. The image should be in a table cell by itself.
Something like this:
<table width="600" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td width="500" height="70" bgcolor="#959595">
your sign-off text here
</td>
<td width="100" height="70" bgcolor="#757575">
<img src=""... style="display:block;">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="600" height="70" colspan="2" bgcolor="#252525">
footer
</td>
</tr>
</table>
I have set both the header and the footer to fixed but still cannot get the content to adjust in IPhone.
Here is my layout code
<body>
<div data-role="page" #(Page.Id == null ? string.Empty : "id=" + Page.Id) data-fullscreen="false">

Isnt jquerymobile suppose to manually adjust? It renders fine in firefox. What can I do to make the content fully display?
\The issue was I had this in my css:
[data-role=page]{height: 100% !important; position:relative !important;}
I got this code from use theme roller not sure why this messed it up. Maybe someone can clarify would be appreciated
