EML naar PDF

Convert an EML email to a paginated PDF that keeps the original headers and renders the body as real, selectable, searchable text. Inline images are embedded, and external images are included only if they load within 2 seconds each and a total of 10 seconds for the email. Attachments and calendar invites are not added, so the tool focuses on the message content and readily loadable images.

E‑mail‑headers behouden

The converter extracts the standard header fields—From, To, Cc, Subject and Date—from the uploaded .eml file and places them together in a dedicated header block at the very top of the first PDF page. Every value is reproduced verbatim, preserving capitalisation, special characters and line‑breaks, so the PDF shows the exact sender, recipients and timestamp as they appeared in the original email.

Bcc information is not displayed because it is stored only in the envelope of the email and is not part of the visible message content. All other visible header fields are kept intact, ensuring the PDF mirrors the email’s public metadata while respecting the non‑visible Bcc privacy.

Rich body layout with pagination

The HTML body of the email is fully rendered in the PDF, preserving paragraphs, headings, ordered and unordered lists, bold, italic, underline, font colours, tables and other inline styles. The converter maps these visual elements to their PDF equivalents, so the layout you see in an email client is reproduced faithfully on each page.

For messages that contain only plain‑text bodies, the converter treats the text as a single block and formats it with a default, readable typeface. No HTML styling is applied, but the text remains selectable and searchable, and long messages are automatically split into multiple pages at natural break points.

Selectable, searchable text and active links

All textual content in the generated PDF is real text, not a raster image. This means you can select, copy, and paste any portion of the email body, and you can use the viewer’s search function (Ctrl + F or Cmd + F) to locate keywords instantly. Screen‑readers also read the text correctly, improving accessibility.

Hyperlinks that were present in the original email—whether standard web URLs or mailto: addresses—are retained as active PDF annotations. Clicking a link in the PDF launches the default web browser or email client with the original target, preserving the navigation experience of the source message.

Images handling

Images that are embedded directly in the .eml file (for example, attached via CID references) are baked into the PDF on the same page where they appear in the email. The converter extracts the binary data, decodes it and inserts the image so it travels inside the PDF without external dependencies.

External images referenced by HTTP or HTTPS URLs are downloaded during conversion. Each image is allowed up to two seconds to load, and the total time budget for all external images in a single email is ten seconds. Images that fail to load within this window are simply omitted, preventing broken placeholders in the final document.

Limieten en scope

Bestandsgrootte‑limiet

De uploadgrootte wordt begrensd door het account‑niveau: anonieme bezoekers hebben een kleinere maximum, een gratis Aspose‑account verhoogt de limiet, en hogere‑niveau‑plannen staan grotere bestanden toe.

Batchverwerking en retentie

De service verwerkt tot 10 EML‑bestanden gelijktijdig; wanneer meerdere bestanden tegelijk worden ingediend, wordt het resultaat geleverd als één ZIP‑archief en blijft de downloadlink 24 uur actief.
