Printing Emails

[benjamat]

Feel a bit of a twerp asking this but cant seem to find the answer.

I have to get printed copies of emails for visa purposes. There are many emails and I want to combine them in 1 file rather than print every one on a seperate sheet. I can see no way to do this, I want to keep the headers showing person sent to and dates etc.

I am sure someone can show me a simple solution but it does not seem possible to save or copy the emails to a single document and include the headers.

Many Thanks.

Can't you just Cut and Paste?

To get the right solution you should tell us which email client do you use.

Thanks, I use outlook express 6.

Cannot simply cut and paste because this only covers the email content and not the headers which include the person sent to and the time and date.

If you hold down your 'ctrl' key, highlight those emails you want to print, right click the highlighted emails and select 'print', it hopefully will do what you want.

I say 'hopefully' because I haven't tested it.

If the email is not very long and it appears on one screen (no scrolling), you can try doing a screen capture. and paste the jpg image on the word document. If the email is a little long, you can do separate screen captures.

Screen capture is done simply by pressing Fn+ prt sc.

You can also use other screen capture programs that you have on your computer.

For a free screen capture program, Google for MwSnap.

Hope this helps.

Try "edit,select all/copy" then got to word and paste you will have everything and can edit out what you do not need, reduce font etc and put it all on one file.

This will do it, but it's time-consuming:

Open the email message and click on File/Properties. Then click on the Details tab. Select all in the window and copy/paste into your Word document.

Then select all/copy/paste the actual text of the email into to Word.

You have to do that process with all of the emails.

Good luck!

Open the e-mail, click somewhere in it and:

if you want to copy and paste to Word use Crtl + A -> Ctrl + C, got to Word and click Ctrl + V;

if you want to print directly use Ctrl + P and the print screen comes up and you choose the printer and print.

Cheers.

Or print in pdf files and combine to one file. Much smaller file size than word...

Thanks everyone, it seems there is no easy way, I have about 100 emails to do, waahhh, what a pain.

Thanks again
