I am creating an email newsletter, however when it prints it looks awful!

Am I able to add a 'print.css' to the file to make it look better? Customer need to print it and show us a coupon at the store.

I know it can't be outside of the document, so is there another way to do this?

Thanks everyone.

<link href="print.css" media="print" type="text/css" rel="print stylesheet">

Can this method be used on a email newsletter? as far as I unserstand you cannot link to an external style sheet.

I already know all about inline stylesheets. I was just wondering if I am able to control the printing of the newsletter. I'm guessing I cannot?

You can, I think the way is:
@media print {
h1 {
font-size:12pt;
}
}

@media print will only work on a webpage not an email newsletter.
You have no control.
