PrtScr
Many times you might like to copy a whole screen of information.
For example, if you buy something online, you may wish to have
an exact copy of their confirmation of payment. Well, it's
easy.
You just tap the PrtScr (print screen) button. The real function
of this key is to make a "snapshot" of your screen. If you have
some imaging software (or a good word processor), you can then
paste your shot into that and crop, etc.
To capture the whole screen, just hit the Print Screen (it might
say Prt Sc ) button on your keyboard. It's located right above
the Insert, Home and Page Up keys.
Then, open your imaging software (and a blank page, if you need
to, it will depend on your software) and select your "Paste"
command (usually Ctrl+V ).
This should paste an image of your computer screen into the
document you're working on. You can also paste the image into a
word processing program like MS Word or WordPerfect if you don't
have imaging software.
If you would like to capture only the current window, hold down
the ALT button while you press the Print Screen button.
