# Email to PDF converter — EML & MSG to PDF, no upload

> Free email to PDF converter: turn .eml, .msg and .mbox emails into clean, selectable-text PDFs in your browser — one at a time or in a batch, with no upload.

Convert .eml, .msg, and .mbox emails into clean, selectable-text PDFs — a free email to PDF converter that runs in your browser with no upload. Do one message or batch a whole mailbox to a ZIP of PDFs.

Turning an email into a PDF is how most people archive a receipt, attach a thread to a case file, or hand a message to someone who doesn't use the same mail app. Doing it in the browser means confidential correspondence — offers, invoices, HR threads — never passes through a conversion server.

Each message keeps a readable header block (from, to, subject, and date) above the body, and the output is real selectable text rather than a flat image, so the PDF is searchable and stays sharp. For an inbox export, point the converter at an .mbox file and get one PDF per message, zipped together.

Already have the PDFs? Combine them into a single file with Merge PDF, shrink large ones with Compress PDF, or, if you first need to read the source message, open it in the Email viewer.

## How to

1. **Add the email.** Drop one or more .eml, .msg, or .mbox files onto the converter.
2. **Review the layout.** The header block (from, to, subject, date) and message body are formatted for print.
3. **Convert.** Render each email to a PDF with selectable text, entirely on your device.
4. **Download.** Save a single PDF, or grab the whole batch as a ZIP.

## FAQ

### How do I convert an EML file to PDF?

Drop the .eml file onto the converter and download the result. The message is laid out with its header block and body, then rendered to a PDF in your browser.

### Can I convert an Outlook .msg to PDF?

Yes. The converter accepts Outlook .msg files alongside .eml and .mbox, producing the same clean, selectable-text PDF.

### Can I convert many emails at once?

Yes. Add multiple files — or an .mbox mailbox — and export them together as a ZIP of PDFs in one pass.

### Is the text in the PDF selectable?

Yes. The body is rendered as real text, not a screenshot, so you can select, copy, and search it and it stays crisp when zoomed.

### Is my email uploaded to make the PDF?

No. The conversion runs in your browser tab; the email's bytes never leave your device.
