Chinese Characters Breaking Tables in Outlook 2013
Hey Everyone!
I am working on a template for a Chinese email and am using Lorem Ipsum text in Chinese and only in Outlook 2013, figures, does it break my tables and does not have any line breaks. Here is an example screenshot. (And I think I have my Chinese mixed with some Japanese too - lol)
Could this be because of the characters or is this something that can be fixed?
Thanks so much!

Hi VW,
I've had this issue with Outlook 2013, too. Try adding this bit of code to your cell style tag for any line of text that runs longer than the width of your template:
<td style="word-break:break-all;">
Note that it will break the text mid-word which may or may not be a problem for the Chinese text you're using.
I run into the same issues in Japanese. We including
word-break:break-allin an mso 15 conditional with some other fixes to avoid mucking with word breaks elsewhere.<!--[if gte mso 15]>
<style type="text/css">
table { font-size:1px; line-height:0; mso-margin-top-alt:1px;word-break:break-all }
</style>
<![endif]-->
Many many many thnx, i was struggling in this for almost 4 hours, Go bless you
Thanks Chris, very helpful!
added this> word-break:break-all
and works perfectly!
