Three things to expect

It sets no background, on purpose. That is what lets a dark-mode client lift your details to light type by itself. A signature that paints its own white panel keeps that panel in a dark thread, which is the boxed-in look you have seen on other people's mail. Flip the preview to Dark to see it.

The mark brings its own ground. Clients invert text; they never invert images, so a bare Gun Metal brandmark would drop to about 1.2:1 and vanish in a dark thread. It sits on a white circle instead: nothing to see against white mail, a clean badge against dark. It is the one element that looks identical in both, by design rather than by luck.

It will not be Avenir for everyone. Outlook for Windows renders mail through Word, which cannot load a web font. Macs show Avenir Next, Windows falls back to Segoe UI, Arial below that. The signature holds its proportions either way.

Raw HTML — for IT, or for a signature management tool

If PK ever moves to Exclaimer or CodeTwo, this is the template to paste in: swap the personal values for the tool's merge fields — typically {{DisplayName}}, {{Title}}, {{Phone}} and {{Email}} — and it applies to every mailbox from Entra ID.
