Convert Emails to PDF And Add Page Counter

Total Mail Converter is a kind of utility, which saves emails in different extensions, including, but not limited to, PDF. With this converter at hand, you can process your emails outside email clients, such as Thunderbird, Outlook, etc. This program allows you to edit your output documents. Basically, you can tune our output PDF files to your taste, adding page counters or dates, selecting their positions, margins, fonts.

Quick answer: To convert emails to PDF with page numbers, launch Total Mail Converter, check the emails in your folder, select PDF, then open the Header/Footer step of the wizard and add a page counter in any corner or center position with your chosen margins, font, and numbering mode. Press Start and the whole batch is saved as numbered PDF files in one run.

All these options are incorporated in the wizard. Total Mail Converter has an easy-to-follow interface, so that both experienced and novice users can operate it without a hitch.

Here is a step-by step instruction on how to convert emails to PDF and add page counters to each page:

1. Launch Total Mail Converter. If you have selected the required folder in the folder tree, you can see a list of emails in the middle panel. Check one or several files or check all of them by pressing the Check all button.
2. Select PDF at the top and follow the wizard's instructions:
   • Choose destination path for your PDF-replicas of your emails.
   • Jump to the page Header/Footer inlay. Here you can use a variety of options: add page counters in the top/bottom right, top/bottom center and top/bottom left positions; set margins, fonts and page numeration mode. You can use two page numeration modes: add a number to each page or, for example, add a number to one page out of every ten pages. Sequential numbering allows you to number pages by folders. Unchecking the sequential numbering option will result in page counting starting over with each folder.
   • In the Document tab, you can adjust paper size, margins, properties, compression, encryption, and sign your documents.
   • Select Start Conversion and read the summary of the settings, which you have chosen.
3. Press Start to convert your emails to PDF.

Total Mail Converter Customer Reviews 2026

"We archive client correspondence from Outlook and needed page numbers on every converted PDF for our filing system. Total Mail Converter added a page counter in the corner of each page during the batch conversion, and the Header/Footer step let us pick the exact position without touching a single file afterward."

Helen Vance Records Coordinator, Vance & Whitfield Notary Group

"Regulators want our email evidence in PDF with sequential page numbers so nothing can be inserted or removed unnoticed. Total Mail Converter converts a full Thunderbird folder to PDF and stamps the page counter and date automatically. It runs from the command line too, which our audit team appreciates for scheduled exports."

Tomasz Nowicki Compliance Officer, Nowicki Regulatory Solutions

"Converting emails to PDF with a page counter used to mean printing to PDF and adding numbers by hand in Acrobat. Total Mail Converter does both in the same wizard, choosing the font and margin for the counter. The first setup took a few tries to get the position right, but batches since have been effortless."
