Export Thunderbird Emails to PDF with Attachments

Windows 7/8/10/11

Converting emails to PDF format can be a challenge when you need the right software for the task. Most programs convert messages one by one, so processing tens or hundreds of emails takes a lot of time. Total Thunderbird Converter Pro solves this problem by offering true batch conversion with full attachment support.

Here is what sets this Thunderbird email converter apart:

• Batch conversion — export hundreds of Thunderbird emails to PDF in one go
• Attachment processing — convert, embed or extract attached files
• PDF security — password protection, encryption and digital signatures
• Bates stamping — add sequential page identifiers for legal use
• Adjustable PDF appearance — control page size, margins and layout
• Integrated email viewer — preview messages before conversion

How Thunderbird Attachment Conversion Works

No other mail converter handles email attachments the way Total Thunderbird Converter Pro does. Most programs simply extract attached files from the mail storage and dump them into a folder. This converter offers a smarter approach:

• Convert attached documents to PDF — Word, Excel, text files and other attachments are rendered directly into the output PDF
• Embed images into the PDF — attached photos and graphics are inserted into the converted email copy with dimensions adjusted to fit the page
• Unpack archives — ZIP and RAR attachments are extracted and their contents are included in the conversion
• Merge everything into one file — combine the email body and all attachments into a single multi-page PDF document

This approach preserves full data integrity when archiving emails. You get one self-contained PDF per message — or merge multiple emails into a single document.

Step-by-Step: Export Thunderbird Emails to PDF

The entire conversion process takes about a minute, regardless of how many messages you need to process:

1. Launch the program — it connects to your Thunderbird profile automatically and displays all mail folders on the left side
2. Select emails — navigate to the desired folder and check the messages you want to export to PDF
3. Choose PDF format — click the PDF icon in the format toolbar at the top of the window
4. Adjust settings (optional) — configure page size, attachment handling, security options or Bates stamping. Default settings work well for most cases
5. Press Start — your PDF copies are ready in seconds

PDF Security and Bates Stamping

When archiving sensitive correspondence, security matters. Total Thunderbird Converter Pro lets you encrypt output PDFs with a password and restrict printing, copying or editing. You can also sign documents with a digital signature for authenticity.

For legal and compliance use, the built-in Bates stamping feature adds sequential identifiers to every page. You can customize the stamp with page counters, dates, company names and confidential notices — placed in headers or footers.
