Chrome Clipper for Gmail broken - Attachments are corrupted

[EricBen 30]

Hi all,

Over the past 1-2 weeks, I've had trouble with the Chrome web clipper in Gmail. When I clip an email, it goes to Evernote as usual. However, the attachments are corrupted and I can't open them.  In fact, even Evernote recognizes them as corrupted because it won't preview PDFs.  Help!

Was it working for you previously? I haven't tried very recently, but over six months ago I reported an issue with saving Gmail emails containing PDF attachments using the web clipper. The thread below also documents my workaround, which may be of help to you:

Hmmn.  If you're a subscriber you will be able to forward emails to your Evernote account address...  Save emails into Evernote

Or if you read your mail off a web page,  Evernote (browser) Clipper might do a reasonable job...
