Converting outlook email message to pdf

When converting email messages from outlook 2007, the default initial view is "fit width", but I cannot find a setting to change this to "fit page", so I have to reset each conversion and save. I changed the acrobat X preferences to "fit page", but this did not change the intial view from email conversion. I do not have this issue with any other program, but could not find outlook specific setting for this.

Unfortunately this isn't an option that you can change for the PDFMaker within Outlook. Since most email messages are displayed in a 'Fit Width' view by default in Outlook, it's the same for conversions to PDF.
Instead, you may want to consider setting up an Action Wizard to change all of the PDFs in a given location to have the desired setting.
Launch Acrobat X Pro
Choose the 'Tools' pane, and open Action Wizard.
Within the 'Document Processing' set of actions, you can configure the 'Open Options'.
Setup the folder of PDFs you want to process, adjust the configurable options within the 'Open Options' step to default to 'Fit page'
Run your folder through the Action Wizard.
Let us know how it goes!

Adobe Acrobat X - convert outlook email to pdf and include attachments as pdf

Is there a way to save an Outlook email as a PDF and include attachments as extra pages within the same PDF? I know I can convert an email to PDF and it will include the attachments as links. My end users feel that their clients won't understand the link feature, and/or the paper clip on the side pane. They'd rather convert an email and have it's attachments converted also, making the pdf an email message + converted attachments....all in one process. The only way currently is to open each attachment and convert them individially, then combine the email pdf and attachment pdf together. Too many steps involveed there.
make sense?
Thanks,

Same question here, but for Lotus Notes!! Seems ridiculously simple.

No attachments when converting Outlook email to pdf

I am using Outlook 2010 and Adobe X Pro. When I try to convert an email message to a pdf it does not include the attachment. (In the setting for conversion I have "Include all attchments in the Adobe PDF" selected.)

It could also be the transparency grid, which you control through the following user preference: Edit > Preferences > Page Display > Page Content and Information > Show transparency grid

Convert Multiple Outlook Emails to Multiple PDF Files (Not Portfolio or Single PDF) for Archiving?

Hi all, I am learning how to convert emails to PDF files and there is some great functionality there!! I have not discovered how to convert multiple outlook emails into multiple PDF files (one PDF file for each email) - all at the same time (not one at a time)!! Is there a way to do this using Acrobat X?? The purpose of this is for long-term business archiving. When I search for an email in the archive, I do not want to pull up a portfolio containing 1000 emails or a 1000 page PDF file with multiple emails run together!!! I want to pull up individual emails containing my search terms. I have been searching for a way to archive emails and MS OUTLOOK .PST files are NOT the answer. I get a lot of business emails with large attachments and I do not file my emails in separate sub-folders (by client or job). I want to convert multiple emails (by date range) from my UNIVERSAL INBOX into multiple PDF files for long term storage (with each email being converted into its own, separate PDF file and named with the same name as the "Re: line" of the email). This has been a HUGE problem for me....and Acrobat is sooooo close to the solution for me. Can anyone help?? If so, will attachments be converted? If not, is there a separate software program or add-in that I can buy that will do this?? I use MS Office 2010, Adobe Acrobat X Pro, Windows 7 64 BIT. Thanks for your help!!

I am a retired person and did'nt realize I already have a Adobe account, so you can scrap the entire information. Thanks for the trial anyway and have a great week.

Issue converting multiple emails using Adobe PDF Plugin

We have users that use the Adobe PDF plugin within Outlook to convert multiple emails into one PDF file. They will select multiple emails, then click on the Adobe PDF tab within Outlook and choose Selected Messages, Create New PDF. When the pdf is created, only the first email that was selected got converted into the pdf file. It does not convert all of the selected emails. I have tried it on my computer and it is not working for me either. We are using, Windows 8.1, Office 2013, Adobe Acrobat Standard XI. The users say they were able to get this to work before we upgraded. Previously, they had Windows 7, Office 2010, Adobe Acrobat X. Is this a bug?

How can I convert an email in a PDF document?

How can I convert an email in a PDF document?

There is no "system solution" that turns an e-mail into a PDF file. In other words, it's not a functionality of the iOS. And there are some apps around that say they turn some documents into PDF files, but in every app that does that, I've never seen one that does so for the entire e-mail itself, but only for the "text" of the e-mail (which won't include the "to" and "from").
BUT, you can get part of the e-mail through a screen shot and you can get more of the e-mail by going "portrait" style and not "landscape". Then after getting the screen shot, you can turn that into a PDF file by those apps I was referring to up above,

Size or number limit for Outlook emails archived to PDF package

I am trying to convert a folder of emails in my Outlook to a indexed PDF package. However, I am getting an error message: "You have chosen to convert a very large number of email messages. Please try again with a folder or selection having fewer messages."
I have tried to research can find no information on any limit to number of email messages archived to a PDF Package.
Is there a limit and if so, what is it?

I am using Acrobat 9 Pro and Outlook 2003 to try and convert a folder to a PDF. I am trying to PDF my archive .pst file which is 2GB in size. I selected the top level folder in my .pst file and got the "You have chosen to convert a very large number of email messages. Please try again with a folder having fewer messages". I have selected sub folders and it converts successfully. For example, it happily converted my Sent Items folder with 8900 email in it.
Is there any way to change the setting to not produce an error but only a warning? I don't care if it takes it 24 hrs to do the conversion....just warn me before you start. The lack of ability to convert a large number of items SEVERELY limits the usefulness of the feature. I want to be able to archive projects when they're complete and a multi year engineering projects will have tens of thousands of items that need to be converted to PDF.
Hopefully someone has an answer.
Thank You

Why Outlook email messages show unreadable characters

When you receive a new email in Outlook, you may see unreadable characters in the email message body. This issue could be caused by one of the following reasons on Outlook client side:
The email you received is converted to plain text format or a different encoding by a virus scanner.
This always happens when you are using characters (Such as apostrophes, double quotes, dashes, and ellipsis) supported by the "Smart Quotes" feature. When the email you received is converted to plain text format or a different encoding by a virus
scanner, the character is converted from the ASCII character to a Unicode character, which is not supported on the recipient’s side.
To prevent this issue from happening, we can turn off the “Smart Quotes” Feature in Outlook:
1. Open Outlook 2013.
2. Click File > Options > Mail.
3. Click Spelling and AutoCorrect button.
4. In the Editor Options window, click AutoCorrect Options button to open the AutoCorrect dialog.
5. Click AutoFormat tab, and then clear the check box before “Straight quotes” with “smart quotes” under Replace heading.
6. Click OK.
The issue may be related to font substitution when a change is made to the Web Options in Microsoft Word.
If a change is made to the Web Options in Microsoft Word, registry data under the following key may be configured incorrectly:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Word\Internet\Fonts
This problem has been seen to occur when the Latin string value under the \Fonts key was empty (no value).
We can check the Web Options setting in Word via:
1. Start Word.
2. Go to File > Options > Advanced.
3. Scroll down to the General section, click Web Options button.
4. Switch to Font tab.
To resolve the problem, we need to delete the \Fonts registry key. To do this, please follow:
1. Exit Word.
2. Press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type regedit and press Enter.
3. Navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Word\Internet\Fonts
4. Right-click the Font key and select Delete.
5. Click Yes and exit Registry Editor.
The sender used an e-mail program that did not mark messages with a language encoding (character set), or marked messages with an incorrect encoding setting.
In this case, we will see unreadable characters when we open the received message in our Outlook. For example, European regional characters (like German) require UTF-8 encoding protocol. So if the encoding in your environment is set to ASCII, the regional
characters will not be available.
To resolve this issue, we need to change the encoding in Outlook to which will display your message correctly.
1. Double-click to open the message you received.
2. Click Actions button in the Move group under Message tab.
3. Click Other Actions > Encoding.
4. Click More and select the correct encoding setting for the email.
5. After you finish reading the message, close the message, and click Yes button to save changes to the message.
When we send an email with Outlook, we can set Outlook to automatically select encoding for outgoing email messages to increase the possibility that the recipient receiving the message will see all the characters rendered properly, even if they run older
e-mail programs. By default, Outlook 2013 will automatically select an optimal encoding for outgoing e-mail messages. We can change the settings here in Outlook 2013: File > Options > Advanced > International Options section.
Something you may need to know when you set the encoding settings:
* The Unicode (UTF-8) character enables the complete range of characters on all computers. It’s the official IANA code for the UTF-8 character encoding.
* Western European (ISO) and Western European (Windows) character set can be read by almost all computers.
* If you are using a language other than English, you must choose the correct character set for that language, or the characters you need will not be displayed correctly.

Email messages containing PDF's with hyperlinks

When I create my PDF (from indesign) with web links and email hyperlinks and send an email that contains the attached PDF, is there a way to allow the recipient to be able to click on those links in that PDF, from within the email message window? Thanks!

Your viewers need to open the attachment to read the PDF.
I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to do. ID really isn't the program for making email blasts.

How can I OCR a PDF that I created by converted an email into a PDF?

In Acro Pro X, I converted an email with an attachment to a pdf file. Now I want to OCR this. But I don't see an option with the Tools on the right side now. Can anyone help, please?

This link is to Acrobat Help.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/pro/using/WS2A3DD1FA-CFA5-4cf6-B993-159299574AB8.w.htm l
On the web page use the first link to view a video about performing OCR with Acrobat X.
As to the PDF from the email. OCR is for images of textual content. If a given PDF page has any renderable text (not an image of text) that page cannot undergo OCR.

Hotmail/Outlook eMail Messages deleted off of iPhone are not being delted off of server

I am using the MAIL app on my iPhone to acces my Hotmail/Outlook account. It is set up as a POP3 account. When I delete an email message on the phone, it is never deleted on the server, even though I have the settings in my phone set to delete them from server when removed from Inbox.
I have not found a clear answer to this issue. Right now I have 10K email messages when I log into my Hotmail

POP accounts are not reliable for deleting off the server. Contact Hotmail. IMAP accounts are what you want.

Syncing Local Outlook Email Messages to iPhone

I apologize if this question has been answered previously, but I did search for an answer and could not find one.
Is there a way to sync the email messages stored on my harddrive (downloaded from the POP3 server) to my iPhone? I do not want to leave all my email on the server.
My previous phone Sprint Pocket PC (Windows Mobile) had two mail options: one for Outlook and one for POP3 account. I do not see that option with the iPhone.

No, there's not. iPhone synchs Email SETTINGS, not E-mails.

Another way, use Google to find a lower cost or free PDF writer and use that.

How to convert Outlook Express6 messages to Outlook 2007

I down loaded the .dbx file form the laptop (XP)with OE6 to a file and installed that file on the Win7 desktop with Outlook 07. I have not been able to import the messages to Outlook 07. I did ask this a week ago and got a responce from Hal but it's not
in "My Threads". Thanks for any help.

Hi,
I have met this issue before and I solved it by this method.
I downloaded DBXconv and saved it into a directory with a copy of my Outlook Express mailbox files. I ran the following command to extract the messages into .eml format.
dbxconv -eml *.dbx
The utility quickly created a folder for each of my .dbx files and created an .eml file for each of my messages. I was then able to import the files into Outlook 2007 by:
1) Dragging the .eml files into Windows Mail
2) Exporting the messages from Windows Mail
3) In Outlook 2007, Selecting File – Import and Export – Import Internet Mail and Addresses
4) Select Outlook Express 4.x, 5.x, 6.x or Windows Mail
5) Check the Import Mail and Import Address book boxes and press
Next
6) In the Import Addresses window you can set how you want duplicates to be handled – Select the option and click
Finish
In addition, I find this KB article on Microsoft.com, it also introduces how to import Outlook Express messages into outlook 2007.

Acrobat 8 misses mail converting Outlook 2007 messages

User had Win XP with Acrobat 8Pro and Office 2007 then moved to new computer with Win7 Pro 32 with Acrobat 8Pro and Office 2007 and has the same problem with converting a batch of emails to pdf. Sometimes an email won't convert and it finished converting all the other mail. Any ideas on what is going on?
Jerry

Tried from another computer with XP and 8 Pro still didn't work so tried from a Win7 machine with adobe X standard and it worked everytime. Just ordered the upgrade because their time is more valuable than the cost.
Thanks
