Hotkey to Print Email to PDF is not working

Help Studio

HI Everyone,

I am trying to convert an email into PDF using

hotkey.
After using Get Email activity, and Looping through the email,
i uses a hotkey

to print email to PDF.

However, the hotkey doesnt seem to work.

I think missed something.
If i do this manually, i usually open the email, and then press

.

How do i open the email?
Or do i need to even open the email before invoking the hotkey?
Tx

HI,

Thanks, i did tried.
But the PDF exported, looks more text-like, and doesnt maintain the
formatting.

HI Raj,

thanks. Not sure why but when i drag image into this chat, it gives error message that image cannot be loaded.

But basically the flow is as follows:

  1. Get Mail Message activity
  2. For Loop to read the email
  3. Use hotkey “ctrl-p”
  4. Nothing happens and process ends …

So not sure why the hotkey doesnt work.
After step 2, i believe i need to open Outlook scope or something? Tx

Hi @Zulzaili

You would have to open up the mail on the screen and then send Ctrl+P to get it printed, else it wouldn’t work.

Thanks
