Screen shots of emails , I need to print them

jay1964

I took screen shots of emails and I now need to print them off , they are printing out the size of a photograph and even with my glasses on they are very hard to read .I need to refer to them ( in court ) so need them to print off bigger.hope this makes sense.  I have them on my iPad and not sure how to enlarge them . I do have a laptop with windows 10 but not really that  good at working it …….could I email to myself again on the laptop , I have a hotmail account on there . 
thanks

You can email yourself - I do so often. Pics from my mobile  - Documents that I want to be available in meetings when I don't have my laptop so I can read them on my phone.

At one time I had an email account dedicated to storing documents.

Can't you just print the email directly from you ipad?

I tried logging into my iCloud account but they must have been deleted from my email  …. Suppose as I knew I had screen shots of them I thought I could refer to those  . I didn’t know they would print off sooo small …….oooh I’m so silly 
many thanks 

I tried logging on to my iCloud as above but they’ve been deleted …..

Do you mean email the docs I have as screen shots and refer to them there ? I may have to do that but I’d feel happier if I could actually print them 
that was in reply to grey critic …… thanks

What format are they saved in ?

Likely best to either e-mail them to yourself or connect your ipad to your computer and download them then you can manipulate the file for printing with whichever program is best depending on the type of document format.

I just secret shot the emails and saved them in my photos , but when I print them they ar3 so tiny . They are less than 1/4 of an A4 page …. I need to be able to read them …I tried emailing them to myself but as they were saved as pictures they still printed out really small

You need to set the correct paper size in the printer settings in your iPad - set it to A4 and it will fill the page.

Your settings screen may differ slightly from this, you will need to figure that bit out yourself because I don't have a printer online at the moment to test with.

I'm not sure if the paper size is the issue. from what I can tell as the OP is printing a screenshot that os probably in landscape format, it is placing it across the portrait sheet and therefore only taking up a small amount of that sheet. Maybe changing the printer to print in landscape might help.

Another option that I think someone above alluded to is to print the actual emails (after having sent them to yourself) rather than screenshots. I have used screenshots myself in the past and they rarely give good results when printed out.
