Save Email as PDF

Save Email as PDF is a Chrome extension that turns Gmail messages into PDF files in bulk. It works right inside Gmail: an Export button appears in the toolbar you already use, so there is no separate app to open, no file to import, and no sign-up. The free trial does not ask for a card.
The workflow follows the way a mailbox is already organised. Filter by label, by search query, or by sender, tick the conversations that matter, and export hundreds of them in one click. Attachments can be saved alongside each PDF, so a thread and the invoice or contract attached to it stay together.
Output is built to be filed, not just downloaded. Filenames come from a template you define out of sender, subject and date, which turns an export into something like 2026-01-15_Acme_Invoice.pdf instead of another folder of message.pdf. Page setup covers A4, Letter, Legal and custom sizes in portrait or landscape, which matters when the PDFs have to match a filing standard rather than merely look right on screen. Layout, fonts and inline images come through exactly as Gmail shows them, so quoted threads and signatures still read the way they did in the inbox.
Where the conversion happens is the part most people check first. Every PDF is generated in your browser. The extension runs 100% locally, nothing is uploaded, and we never see a single email. For anyone who handles other people's correspondence that removes an awkward step: archiving a client's mail no longer means passing it through an outside converter. That is why it is used across legal, finance and accounting, real estate, HR and recruiting, healthcare and insurance, and by freelancers and agencies.
Save Email as PDF is published on the Chrome Web Store, where it holds a 4.9-star rating and is trusted by more than 10,000 Gmail users. The free tier includes 30 conversions and lifetime upgrades. Unlimited export costs $4.99 a month, or $49.90 a year for anyone archiving on a regular schedule; both paid plans include priority support and can be cancelled at any time.
