Why convert MIME to GIF?
A MIME file holds an internet email in the standard Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions format, with headers, body parts and attachments. The image shows the message headers (From, To, Cc, Subject and Date), the decoded body with its formatting, and a list of attached parts by name and type.
GIF stores the image with an optimised palette of up to 256 colours, which suits text, diagrams and flat colour.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert MIME to GIF?
Drop your MIME file above and press Convert. Our servers decode the MIME parts, lay out the headers and body, and render the page. The result is saved as a GIF image, ready to download.
Is the encoded body of a MIME message readable in the GIF?
Yes. Base64 and quoted-printable parts are decoded before layout, so the GIF shows the actual words and formatting of the message.
Which part of a multipart MIME message appears in the GIF?
When the message has an HTML part, that version is rendered with its formatting. A message written in plain text is shown as neatly wrapped text.
What happens when a MIME file fills several GIF pages?
Each page is rendered at 144 dpi and saved as its own GIF image, named page-1, page-2 and so on, and they download together as one ZIP. A single page downloads as one GIF file.
How are colours handled in the MIME to GIF image?
GIF uses a palette of up to 256 colours. The converter builds an optimised palette from the rendered image, which keeps text, lines and solid colours clean.
Is my .mime file kept private?
Your file is uploaded over an encrypted connection, converted on our servers and deleted automatically within 24 hours. We never read, share or keep your files, and no account is needed.
