Start your application and open the file to the page or
image you want to capture.
NOTE
◗
The entire screen is captured, not just the active
window. Make sure you maximize your presentation
before you capture it. If you set your application to
“slide show” mode (or the equivalent) you can capture
just the image you want, without menus and other
screen elements. See your application’s documentation
for instructions.
◗
Presentations using large font sizes (at least 18 points)
work best.

Press the hot key combination you selected. Your screen
capture is assigned a file name and saved to the folder

simply open each file you want to capture and press your
hot key combination again.

When you’re finished, close your application and click
the
Stop
button on the Screen Capture dialog box. The
key combination you selected is erased.
