Warning: This process may take up to one minute depending on file size.

Converts email (EML) files to PDF format including headers, body, and inline images

  • Converting email to HTML is a more reliable process, so it's recommended to save both when doing batch processing
  • For a small number of emails, if the PDF is corrupted, you can download the HTML file and modify some problematic HTML/CSS code
  • However, embedded content does not work with HTML

Conversion Tips

Try HTML intermediate if PDF looks off

Download the HTML intermediate option to review formatting before relying on the final PDF.

Set an attachment size limit

Use maximum attachment size so large attachments do not bloat or break the result—handling follows UI rules.

Convert one email at a time

Single-file conversion is more predictable than trying to process very large batches elsewhere.

Headers and body included

Converts EML content including headers, body, and inline images where supported.

Attachment options

Include attachments up to a maximum size you set—rules follow the on-page controls.

HTML intermediate option

Optionally download HTML instead of PDF to troubleshoot formatting.

What this tool does

EML to PDF turns a saved email (.eml) into a readable PDF for archiving, sharing, or records—without needing the original mailbox.

Optional controls cover attachments, recipient listing, and an HTML intermediate download.

How to use

Upload one EML

Select or drag a .eml file into the upload area.

Choose conversion options

Set attachments, max size, recipients, or HTML intermediate as needed.

Convert and download

Run conversion and save the PDF (or HTML) result.

Supported inputs and output

Input: one .eml file plus UI options (attachments, max attachment size MB, include all recipients, download HTML). Output: one .pdf (or HTML when selected).

Approximate upload limit is about 100 MB per request. Attachment handling follows the converter rules shown in the UI.

Processing and privacy

Your EML is posted over HTTPS to /api/converter/eml-to-pdf and processed temporarily on Toolomix servers via Stirling-PDF, then returned as a download.

Toolomix does not publish a verified universal retention clock for every conversion. See the Privacy Policy for how uploads and logs are handled.

Limitations

Known limits

  • Single .eml per request—no batch conversion
  • Attachment handling follows UI converter rules
  • Complex HTML emails may need the intermediate HTML option
  • Embedded content may not work the same in HTML intermediate
  • Uploads near or above ~100 MB may be rejected

Troubleshooting

If conversion fails, confirm the file is a valid .eml, reduce attachment inclusion or max size, and keep the upload under ~100 MB.

If the PDF looks corrupted, download the HTML intermediate, inspect CSS/markup issues, then try again.

EML to PDF FAQ

What endpoint converts my file?

The browser posts to /api/converter/eml-to-pdf with your selected options. Toolomix processes the EML through Stirling-PDF and returns a PDF (or HTML when that option is selected).

Are attachments always included?

No. Attachment handling follows the converter rules shown in the UI—use Include attachments and the maximum size setting.

What if the PDF looks broken?

Try downloading the HTML intermediate file to review and troubleshoot formatting, then convert again if needed.

Does embedded content work in the HTML option?

Embedded content does not always work the same way in the HTML intermediate as in the final PDF.

How long does conversion take?

Often under a minute; larger emails or attachments can take longer.

Is there a size limit?

Uploads are limited to about 100 MB by server middleware. Larger files may be rejected.

Can I convert multiple EMLs in one request?

No. Upload one .eml file per conversion.
