Export EML to PDF

EML Viewer Pro is a great tool for export EML files to PDF format. Using the Export functionality on the toolbar, you can easily exported your selected email messages to PDF and other formats.

Select the emails to convert in the mail list, choose the desired Export Profile (such as PDF – attachments embedded which will convert your selected email to PDF format), then click the Export button (green down arrow). EML Viewer Pro will go to work exporting your email messages.

EML Viewer Pro lets you perform four specific EML to PDF operations:

  1. EML Files can be exported with file attachments extracted.
  2. Embed file attachments within the PDF file. This means that the file is stored within the PDF as a separate file which can later be extracted by any standards compliant PDF viewer (like Adobe Reader).
  3. You can also convert most file attachment within a .eml file into the PDF image. If an attachment is unable to be converted, it will then be embedded within the PDF file to preserve the context.
  4. Export EML files individually to an existing PDF file. This means you can individually export email messages as you discover them, to a single PDF file.

Download a free trial of EML Viewer Pro and use it for 15 full days, with no obligation.
