Features

Everything you need to keep an email

No printing, no copy-pasting, no broken layouts. Just a clean PDF you can file away or share.

  • One click, any email

    Save the open message from the toolbar icon, the in-page button, or the right-click menu.

  • Whole threads included

    Collapsed and older messages are expanded and ordered chronologically, so nothing is lost.

  • Real, searchable text

    Vector text you can select, copy and search. Inline images are embedded and links stay clickable.

  • Batch export

    Select several conversations and save them as one merged PDF or separate files, optionally zipped.

  • Keep the details

    Keep the From, To, Cc, Date and Subject headers, the full body, and attachment names.

  • Six languages, light & dark

    A clean interface that matches Chrome's theme, in English, German, Spanish, French, Portuguese and Russian.

Privacy

Private by design

There is no account, no server and no analytics. Gmail to PDF reads the email only when you ask it to, builds the PDF in your browser, and hands the file to your downloads.

  • No account, no server and no analytics.
  • Reads your email only when you ask it to export.
  • Runs only on mail.google.com — never on your other tabs.
  • Nothing is uploaded; your email never leaves your device.
What it does not do.
  • It does not read your other tabs, your whole mailbox or your contacts.
  • It does not upload your email anywhere.
  • It does not include attachment files in the PDF (only their names).
  • It does not use the Gmail API, OAuth or any external service.

FAQ

Any email or conversation open in Gmail — a single message, a whole thread, or several selected conversations at once.

Are attachments included?

Attachment names are listed in the PDF, but the files themselves are not embedded.

Is my data safe?

Yes. There is no server and no telemetry; your email never leaves your device.
