Gmail

Install an HTML email signature

← All installation guides

Gmail on the web has no HTML code field. Copy the signature as it looks in a browser, then paste it into Gmail settings. Follow each step in order.

  1. Create a blank signature in Gmail

    1. Sign in to Gmail on a computer.
    2. Click the Settings gear at the top right, then See all settings.
    3. On the General tab, scroll to Signature.
    4. Click + Create new and name it Work signature.

  2. Copy the signature as it looks

    Download your HTML signature file from your company signature page.

    • Open the file in Chrome, Edge or Firefox. Leave Safari for this step. It can change the formatting when you copy.
    • Click the signature, select all with Ctrl+A (Windows) or Cmd+A (Mac), then copy with Ctrl+C or Cmd+C.

    Copy the signature as it looks. If you paste the raw code into a normal signature box, the email will show the code instead of the design.

  3. Paste into Gmail

    1. Click inside the Gmail signature box and paste with Ctrl+V or Cmd+V.
    2. Under Signature defaults, choose Work signature for new emails, and for replies and forwards if you want it there. Gmail will not add it until you do.
    3. Scroll to the bottom of the settings page and click Save Changes.
    4. Start a new email to check images and links.
