Printing a LINE Chat Cleanly

Ever tried to print a LINE chat and ended up with dozens of screenshots? Export the chat history and turn it into a PDF in the convokeep app, and you get one file organized by date. Then print it on a home printer or at a convenience store.

What you get

One PDF split by date, with the sender and time on each message. It reads better than a row of screenshots, and the Record layout adds page numbers too, so it is easy to follow the order on paper.

Export steps

  1. Export the chat history in LINE. Phone: "≡" → "Others" → "Export chat history"; PC: "≡" → "Save chat". Menu names vary by version (needs verification).
  2. Drop the .txt onto this page to build the PDF, and choose a print-friendly layout.
  3. Print: use a home printer, or put the PDF on a USB drive or cloud storage and print it on a convenience-store multi-function copier.
  4. If you saved the file on your phone, move it to your computer. Send it by email to yourself, a cloud drive, USB, or whatever is easiest, then drop it in.

A long chat means many pages, so narrowing the date range and printing only what you need saves paper.

Privacy

Reading the file, building the PDF and calculating hashes all happen in your browser. No chat or attachment is uploaded and there is no account. The site counts visits and exports with cookieless analytics, and those events never contain message text, names or file names. Read the full privacy policy.

Keepsake vs Record

Keepsake uses a book-style layout suited to memories and printing. Record adds page numbers, sender and time, and an integrity page with the source SHA-256 and transcript SHA-256 hashes (the PDF's own hash is supplied separately).

A later copy whose SHA-256 hash matches the recorded hash has not changed since that hash was recorded. This does not show that the original chat is authentic or complete. Prepared for submission, with an integrity hash. Not legal advice. Whether it is accepted is decided by the court or agency. Read the disclaimer.

FAQ

How is this different from screenshots?
Screenshots pile up as one image per screen and cannot be searched. A PDF puts everything in one file in date order, and you can search the text.
Can I choose A4 or Letter?
The paper-size options should be checked in the latest build (needs verification). In Japan, A4 is the usual size for printing.
Can I print it at a convenience store?
Yes. You can put the PDF on a USB drive or cloud storage and print it on the store's multi-function copier. Check supported formats and steps with each store or service.
Is it free?
The preview of the first 3 pages (watermarked, no integrity page) is free. Saving the full PDF is a one-time paid feature.
