EML sang SVG

Convert an .eml email file to an .svg vector graphic. The resulting SVG preserves the email’s headers and body as real, selectable text and embeds any inline images as self‑contained image data, so the layout stays crisp at any zoom level. ⧉ Scope: only images that load within the 10 second window are included; external images that exceed this are omitted.

Headers rendered at the top

The converter extracts the standard email headers – From, To, Cc, Subject and Date – and draws them as the first block in the SVG, preserving their original order and text. Bcc entries are omitted so hidden recipients are not shown.

Selectable vector text with full formatting

Email body content is written as SVG text elements, making every word selectable, copyable and searchable in modern browsers or SVG‑aware editors. HTML formatting such as paragraphs, lists, bold, italic, underline, colors, tables and inline styles is reproduced as vector shapes; plain‑text messages appear as a single text block.

Embedded and external images handling

Images embedded in the .eml are baked into the SVG as self‑contained image data, removing external references. For external URLs the tool tries to fetch each image, allowing up to two seconds per image and a total of ten seconds for all images; any that do not load in that window are omitted without placeholders.

Clickable hyperlinks preserve interactivity

Web URLs and mailto: links from the original email are kept as SVG link elements. When the SVG is opened in a viewer that supports SVG links (e.g., current web browsers), clicking a link navigates to the destination or opens a new email composition window, maintaining the email’s interactivity.
