I think a screenshots of your whatsapp chats arranged on word document, say 6 -8 screenshots in in each paper will do.

I will link it later this evening.

 

When I front-loaded, I had them in a word document and also some screenshots. 

 

If you do the "email chat logs" on whatsapp, it opens to a word document, so that won't work either.

I just mailed my chat log with my fiance and i discovered that the log comprises of 1300 pages. How is it even possible to print a whole 1300 pages of whatsapp chat ? I think I'd screenshot the chats from my phone into a collage( 4 pics in one collage) then I'd convert the collages into a pdf file.

Yes that's the idea,  screenshots then arrange it in word paper or pics collage. But label it. Like a notes about each picture
