But if you are doing it manually inside Outlook, then you can only do small tasks, like a limited number of emails, &amp; if you have only one or two emails, it is okay, but not for the entire mailbox.

With this, you can easily convert <strong>emails<\/strong>, <strong>attachments <\/strong>&amp; <strong>folders <\/strong>into PDF format.
