MSG to PDF Python Overview
The MSG to PDF Python library converts MSG email files into PDF.
This Python library allows you to customize various aspects, such as email headers, page orientation, page size, and margins. It also provides options for compressing files, converting email attachments, and merging them with the email body to create PDF and PDF/A-compliant documents.
This Python library is especially valuable for businesses needing to maintain an accessible and standardized email archive and for legal firms that require secure, tamper-proof email documentation for evidentiary purposes.

StoreFile
Bool Default: FalseWhen the StoreFile parameter is set to True, your converted file is written to ConvertAPI’s encrypted, temporary storage and made available via a time-limited secure download URL, valid for up to 3 hours. After this period, the file is permanently deleted.
When StoreFile is set to False, conversion happens entirely in-memory. The raw file bytes are streamed back in the API response without touching disk or external storage, ensuring maximum security and zero persistence so that only you can access the content.
