Convert emails to PDF — attachments included
The dirty secret of most email-to-PDF methods is that attachments simply vanish. Print-to-PDF renders the message window; the contract, the invoice, the photos attached to it leave no trace in the output. Months later, the PDF says nothing about what travelled with the message — which is sometimes the entire point of the email.
This converter treats attachments as part of the record. Every generated PDF includes a numbered attachment manifest: filename, type and size for each file the message carried, printed right below the headers. With the full version, the original attachment files are also extracted from the email and packaged into the output ZIP, organized per message, byte-identical to what was sent.
That combination — a PDF documenting what was attached, plus the unaltered originals alongside — is what an HR file, an insurance claim or a court exhibit actually needs. And because parsing runs in your browser, neither the emails nor their attachments ever upload anywhere.

How attachment handling works
- Drop in .eml, .msg or .mbox files — attachments are detected inside the MIME parts or the .msg container.
- Each email's PDF lists every attachment with name, type and size.
- Enable "Extract attachments to ZIP" (full version) to receive the original files organized per email.
- Inline images embedded in HTML bodies are catalogued as attachments too.
Questions
Are the extracted attachments altered?
No — they're the exact bytes carried in the email, decoded from their MIME encoding. Hashes of the originals will match what the sender attached.
What about attachments inside attachments?
A .msg or .eml attached to another email is extracted as a file; convert it in a second pass if you need its contents as PDF too.
Do inline images appear in the PDF?
They're recorded in the manifest. The transcript-style PDF prioritizes the verifiable text record; the extracted ZIP gives you the images themselves.
