If you are speaking about converting a Marketo Email into a .pdf, there is nothing native to Marketo that does this. However, you can enable the "Include View as Web Page" link on the email in question and then send this email to yourself. You can then view the email as a webpage in Chrome, and use the Chrome addon "Save as PDF" to convert the page to a .pdf. 
*Note that the .pdf will include the appended tracking links in the .pdf. You may want to disable the tracking links via the following solution: Disable Tracking for an Email Link.

The only thing about using Chrome to save your email as a PDF would be that it would be low resolution. We've had a couple people try that with emails and haven't been very pleased with the quality of results. Have you thought about exporting the HTML from Marketo, and using it to create a web page on your site? If you disable tracking and strip out the everything outside the <body> tags, here might even be a way to paste it into a Marketo blank template.

Sorry, no easy way... and I've tried a lot.

This can be a lot of extra work depending on the complexity of your email but I have recreated mine (which are somewhat complex) in Word and then saved out as a pdf..
