Assuming that you are using the native Mail App.


With the email that you wish to convert to a PDF is on-screen, tap the arrow icon at bottom-right of the screen; an action menu will appear. From the menu, select Print; the Print page will now appear, with the email paginated as thumbnail images on the left - and print options to the right…


Use the two finger Zoom gesture (i.e., spreading two fingers) on any of the thumbnail images; this will open a print preview page. At top-right of the print-preview, tap the Share icon (a square, with an upward-pointing arrow).




Tapping the Share icon will expose the Share Sheet; you’ll note that the document type is now a PDF as illustrated. You can now use any of the available Share actions - such as Save to Files.


Having saved or otherwise shared the PDF, just tap Done at top-left - and then cancel the Print dialogue.
