Research direction
The issue reports that signatures generated by the tool do not render correctly in Outlook 2013; images fail to load and layout differs. First, reproduce the issue by running the generator and testing the output in Outlook 2013. Examine the generated HTML for any Outlook specific compatibility issues, such as missing VML or conditional comments. Look at the template files (e.g., in 'src/templates/') and the build process. Check if there are any known workarounds for Outlook in the project's documentation or issues. Consider adding a test case for Outlook rendering.
