EML to PDF converter

Turn a .eml email file into a clean, printable PDF — subject, sender, date, and body laid out like a proper document.

  • 100% in your browser — never uploaded
  • Native print quality, no watermark
  • Free, no signup

How it works

Your browser is the converter

01

Drop the .eml

The file is parsed locally: subject, sender, recipients, date, body, and the attachment list.

02

Check the preview

The email is laid out as a document with a proper header block. Toggle remote images if you want them included.

03

Save as PDF

Your browser's own print engine produces the PDF — native quality, searchable text, no watermarks.

FAQ

Is my email uploaded to convert it?

No. The .eml file is parsed and laid out by JavaScript running locally in your browser, and the PDF is produced by your browser's own print engine. Nothing is sent to any server.

How do I actually save the PDF?

Click “Save as PDF” and your browser's print dialog opens with the formatted email. Choose “Save as PDF” as the destination (Chrome/Edge have it built in; on macOS use the PDF menu in the dialog) and save. The suggested filename is the email's subject.

Why are images missing from my PDF?

Remote images are blocked by default because they're used as tracking pixels. If you want them in the PDF, enable “Load remote images” above the preview before saving — images embedded inside the .eml always print.

Are attachments included in the PDF?

They're listed on the PDF's header block (name and size) so the record shows they existed, but their contents can't live inside a PDF. Keep the original .eml alongside the PDF — it holds the actual attachments and the verifiable headers.

Can I convert many .eml files at once?

This tool converts one file at a time. If you're producing PDFs because you're archiving email, consider archiving the .eml itself instead — it's the more faithful format — and let InboxBucket do it automatically.

A PDF is a picture of an email — the original .eml is the evidence. Just want to read the file? Use the EML viewer, or learn why .eml is the right archive format.
