Here's the description for the Windows environment (screenshots in Dutch version of Paint):
- Open the webpage needed with picture or line drawing
- Press the PrintScreen button (Alt + PrintScreen will only capture active window, try the difference)
- Open a new file in Paint
- Paste (Ctrl + V or Edit, Paste)
The screenshot is now a Paint image - Click the Select button
- Drag around the part of the screen you want as a picture
- Copy selected area (Ctrl + C or Edit, Copy)
- Choose File, New from the menu, you don't have to save current picture
- Paste (Ctrl + V or Edit, Paste)
The selected are is now a picture on its own.
- Choose File, Save as
- Select appropriate folder where you want to save the picture
- Type name of file/picture (I use year/month/number of the Burda issue)
- Select JPEG(*jpg...) as File Type (I use this format as it can be used easily later to upload for a review or in my blog, but you may choose another format if you like)
- Click Save
The picture is saved.
Hope this is helpful.
Cidell (and everyone), Macs have a built-in program called Grab that does screen captures. Look in the Utilities folder in Applications.
