Outlook v15.20 - signature now has image embedded not a link

This is a double post as I'm not sure that I posted in the OficeInsider area before.

This update seems to have screwed up my signature. Until now my signature had one image that was not embedded but a link. Now this behaviour seemed to have changed and the image is embedded in the message. Can we have the old behaviour restored?

    This update has completely ruined my signatures. Fonts are now incorrect type and oversized and images are pixelated. Copying and pasting correctly formatted signatures from emails sent before the latest update into the signature editor, corrupt the formatting as mentioned. There seems no workaround. 

    I've noticed Arial font now looks pixelated in new emails compared to nice sharp fonts before the update.

    What a shoddy, poorly delivered update, breaking functionality yet again. But I suppose we should expect this from Microsoft who have no quality control or regressional testing when releasing updates.

    Hi,

    I'm having the same issue.

    Furthermore, if I attempt to create a new signature by pasting from a rendered html source, the text is oversized, not observing the original text size.

    As an example, I have an html signature with 9.0 pt and 7.5 pt sized text, that when pasted onto Word or Outlook is represented as 12 pt and 10 pt, respectively.

    Thanks John. I hope we can get the old behaviour back.

    Hi Daniel, 

    Thanks for reporting this. This is changed behavior due to the new editor functionality.  We will have to investigate whether the old behavior can be "restored."
