You can change the styles used for the files title and the items area by editing the styles in your AcyMailing template.
You can also modify the way your file is displayed by creating your own template which will be used to render the file. Please follow those instructions, we don't recommend you to modify the joomdoc plugin directly otherwise your changes will be overwritten when you update AcyMailing.
Create a file in the the folder media / com_acymailing / plugins (if the folder does not exists, please create it first). The name of the file should be joomdoc.php If this file is available on your server, AcyMailing will use it and won't use the default one.
On this file you can access to the element $article (which is the item object loaded from the joomdoc table).
You can display:
the Id of the file : $article->DocId
the name of the file : $article->dmname
picture of the article: $article ->dmthumbnail
File creator: $article ->username
Published date: $article ->dmdate_published
the url of your item: $link
Using all those variables, you can create your own product template.
