What is a MSG file?
MSG is the file format Microsoft Outlook uses to save a single email, contact, or calendar item. It stores the header (sender, recipient, subject, timestamp), the message body, and any original attachments in one file — which is why it can typically only be opened natively in Outlook.
// 02
What is a PDF file?
PDF is a fixed-layout document format: fonts, spacing and page breaks are baked in, so the file looks the same on every device and printer. That stability is why legal, HR and finance teams archive correspondence as PDF rather than as live email — a PDF cannot be silently reflowed or edited by the reader, and it opens without any mail client. Our converter writes the header fields (from, to, date, subject) as a block at the top of page one, then lays out the message body underneath with automatic page breaks.
// Frequently asked
Questions people ask before converting
Yes. Sender, recipients, date and subject are printed as a header block on the first page, so the PDF stands on its own as a record of the message.
Attachments are listed by name and size in the PDF, and you can save the original files separately from the result panel. Binary attachments are not embedded in the page itself.
No. There is no watermark, no page limit and no signup — the output is a clean PDF generated on your own device.
The PDF reproduces the header and body as stored in the MSG file. For formal e-discovery, keep the original .msg alongside the PDF, since the original retains full metadata.
