EML to TIFF

Convert EML to TIFF creates a paginated TIFF image that contains the full email content, including the header fields and any inline images. Each uploaded .eml file yields a single multi‑page TIFF, keeping long messages together and preserving formatting for systems that require an image input. The converter covers the message body and headers only; attachments are not included in the output.

Headers rendered on the first page

The converter extracts the standard email headers — From, To, Cc, Subject, and Date — and draws them as a formatted block at the top of the first TIFF page. The block follows the original order, uses a clear sans‑serif typeface, and becomes part of the raster image, so the visible header information is permanently preserved.

Because the headers are rasterised, they are not selectable or searchable, which matches archival workflows that need a faithful visual snapshot rather than editable text. Bcc information is omitted to respect privacy, and no additional metadata is added.

Body layout, styling and inline images

The HTML body is rendered with full visual fidelity: paragraphs, headings, lists, bold, italic, underline, font colours, tables and inline CSS are rasterised onto the TIFF pages exactly as they appear in an email client. Plain‑text messages become a single block of monospaced text that respects line breaks.

Images embedded directly in the email (CID references) are baked into the TIFF, creating a self‑contained file. When the email references remote images, the engine attempts to download each one; images that fail to load within a ten‑second window are omitted without placeholders, keeping the visual flow clean.

Multi‑page pagination, font handling and non‑Latin scripts

If the rendered email exceeds a single page, the converter continues onto additional TIFF frames, producing one multi‑page TIFF per email. Each page follows a standard document size (A4 or Letter), so long messages stay together in a single file rather than many separate images.

The rasterisation uses the server’s bundled Western Latin fonts. For scripts not covered—such as CJK, Hebrew, or Arabic—the engine substitutes the closest matching glyphs from fallback fonts. The resulting text is readable but is not selectable or searchable without OCR.
