Most standard keyboards have a 'Print Screen' key. This is usually at the top, right of the keyboard. The 'Print Screen' key is sometimes labeled 'PrtScn' or something similar.

If you press the 'Print Screen' key, a copy of what you see on your screen will be made. If nothing happens when you press the 'Print Screen' key, that's OK, the copy has still been made.

To open the Windows 7 Paint application do the following:

Click the Windows 7 Start button and select 'All Programs'.


Select 'Accessories', and then click Paint.

I would suggest an extra page to show how to add lines, arrows and squares:)

That's a great point Loes.

Quick question ... does anyone use OneNote to prepare blogs? If so how do you get the lines and arrows to move with the images over to the actual blog in WA?

Thanks,

I use one note sometimes, but I've never needed to move lines and arrows, just different sections of text used as reference.

Yep, one of the lesser know Windows features, and I've not met many folks that even knew "print screen" was a keyboard button much less what it does .... it does NOT print to your printer. lol

ROCK ON!

Thank you Good training item. I have a copyrighted photo I would like to make use of ... If I crop this as per your instructions could I still use this? Is it not longer a copyright item?
I've tried the method for tables created in MS word but does not seem to work for this particular item.... just get a white screen.... any thoughts would be appreciated.

I know Google has a feature that let's you know if you can use a pic af all or if y po u edit it. While you're in images, the menu options will make it clear of the use allowed while sorting.
I hope this helps. I'm not at my laptop so can't tell you exactly what to do but there is a training here in the community that will explain to. I

Copyright is given as a private photographer based in Gibraltar.....it is one amongst hundreds. I just wish to use part of it to be placed into a post of mine.

Any clues about capturing the MS table?

Hi Brookline. You should probably reference the copyright information somewhere. What do you mean by 'MS table'?
