Print or download an email as a PDF, JPG, or PNG file

Turning your sent email into a flyer or poster is a great way to reuse and show off your content to people who haven't yet joined your mailing list! Or if you're drafting an email and need to get feedback from someone before you send it to your contacts, you can easily download it as a PDF or print out a hard copy for them to review in person.

If you need help with the printer settings on your computer, please see Microsoft's support for Windows devices or Apple's support for Macs.

 

Exclamation Point IconImportant: It's a violation of our terms to host a PDF version of your newsletter on your website. You can instead copy the URL for your email and share the link on your website, or install the email archive widget on your website and add the emails you want to display from within your Constant Contact account.
