Screen Capture
When asked to provide images or maps in the assignment,
use the standard Windows functionality to create screen captures, and then place
these inside your document. For those of you who do not know how this is done,
here are instructions (which, incidentally, is how all of these course pages
were created):
- Size the window as you would like it to appear in your word-processing application.
- Make sure the window you wish to capture is active.
- Press the <Alt-Print Screen> keyboard combination.
- Make the word-processed document active.
- Press the CTRL-V keyboard combination
- If you wish to crop the images before they are placed in the document, do
so in an image processing application such as Photoshop,
20/20, or LviewPro,
then use the word-processor to insert the image from a file.
Note: if you do not press the <ALT> key, the <Print Screen>
key will capture the entire screen, rather than just the active
application.
