how do i translate this style to newsletter?

You can’t change newsletter style because it’s controlled by Ghost email template, which can’t be modified from externally.

can the title be left-adjusted, while excerpt is justified

Yes, possible, but the code varies depending on the theme, so it’s better to provide a link.

Hi Raki!

thanks for the answer. Well, if it’s correct about emails it’s simply terrible. People mostly read just the emais and I believe all texts should be justified. Left alignment is very strange choice for the only option.

I’m using headline theme.

To justify excerpt in headline theme, you can use the following code:

 .post-template .gh-article-excerpt,
 .page-template .gh-article-excerpt {
    text-align: justify;
  }

Thank you! Works perfect

This method, along with the provided code, can be applied to all themes and websites on Ghost. You have the flexibility to either use only the relevant parts of the code for specific sections or implement it across the entire site to ensure consistent styling. By targeting multiple templates (like .default-template, .index-template, .home-template, etc.) in a single rule, this approach streamlines your CSS and allows for easy customization. Whether you want to justify the text on particular pages or apply it site-wide, you can modify the code to suit your specific needs, giving you full control over the layout and presentation.

Here’s the expanded code for reference:

<style>
.default-template, .index-template, .home-template, .post-template, .page-template, .tag-template, .author-template {
    text-align: justify;
}
</style>

This code ensures that all relevant templates have their text justified, but you can also selectively adjust it to meet your design requirements for any specific template or page.
