Sometimes there are important emails that you need to print. To format it correctly, the old ways were to copy-paste the contents of the email into MS Word and then hit the print button. If you use Gmail, there is a faster way. You can enable the Create Document Lab feature from Settings and connect Gmail to Google Docs seamlessly.

Create document from any email in Gmail

Step 1. Log into your Gmail account. Click the gear icon at the top right of the window and choose Settings form the menu.

Step 2 . Click on the Labs tab and scroll down the list of available labs to locate the Create Document feature.

Step 3. Click the Allow next to Create Document and then the Save Changes button at the bottom of the page. Gmail will reload.

Step 4. Open the message you want to print – Click the Next button – choose Create Document to save the message as a Google Docs file.

You can then format it and send it for printing or download it as a Word document or PDF file.
