In Outlook, here are two ways you can convert files.

  1. Use Outlook’s ‘Print to PDF’ option (for Windows 10): In the menu bar, go to ‘file’, then ‘print’, and choose ‘Microsoft Print to PDF’.
  2. Double-click your MSG file, so it opens in Outlook, then go to ‘File’ and choose ‘Save As’. Here, choose the ‘HTML’ option. Now open your newly-created HTML file in Microsoft Word and save it as a PDF (go to ‘File’, then ‘Save As’, and choose ‘PDF’.
  • (Note: If your email has attachments, Outlook won’t include them in the PDF. To convert MSGs with their attachments, use option 2 below.)

  2. Select the messages to be converted.
  3. Click on “Selected Messages” and create a new PDF file format using the drop-down menu.
  4. A new tab will open, so users can choose the destination and name the file.
  5. To obtain the converted file, click the “Save” option.
  • Some of the options you get include saving your results to an existing PDF file using the “Append to existing PDF” and turning every new email into a PDF file format using the Automatic Archival feature.
