How to Print Text Screenshots for Evidence

Transform scattered chat screenshots into a courtroom-ready PDF you can print or e-file.

Published October 25, 2025

Loose screenshots rarely survive the trip from your phone to the courtroom printer. Screenshot2PDF cleans them up, lines them in order, and gives you the same professional layout clerks expect from law firms.

When to use this

  • You exported long text message threads and need a physical packet that preserves timestamps, contact names, and the full sequence without gaps.
  • You want to file screenshots with a declaration or exhibit list, and the court mandates letter-size PDFs with legible margins and page numbers.
  • You are mailing evidence to the other party and want the recipient to read everything without juggling thumbnails or misaligned print jobs.

How to do it (fast)

  1. Move the screenshots from your phone to a desktop folder so you can confirm they are upright and sequential before uploading them into Screenshot2PDF.
  2. Launch Screenshot2PDF, click Select screenshots, and choose every JPG or PNG in order; the tool keeps the order you select so conversations stay coherent.
  3. Add a descriptive header such as Exhibit B — Texts with Landlord, and optionally include a short case caption so the printout looks like a law office binder.
  4. Generate the PDF, then open it in your default viewer to check margins, zoom level, and pagination before emailing, printing, or uploading it to the court portal.

Why this helps

  • The generator locks each screenshot onto a letter-size canvas, so nothing gets cropped when you print double-sided or upload to an e-filing system that compresses images.
  • Page numbers and optional headers instantly communicate professionalism, making it easier to reference specific statements during hearings or mediation.
  • Because everything renders locally in your browser, sensitive conversations stay offline, which is critical when dealing with harassment, custody, or small-claims disputes.
