Many users have all asked me how to take a picture of what is on the screen as they see it. The reasons vary; some people want to show a co-worker what they see, troubleshoot a technical issue or for creating learning materials. What ever the reason, taking a picture of your screen or capturing a picture of your screen is a great tip.

If you want to take a snapshot of what you see on the screen in front of you all you need to do is hit the Print Screen Key on your keyboard. This is like hitting copy.

Then you need to go to a Word document or even an image program and click Paste. (Ctrl + V on the keyboard or Edit – Paste from the menu bar). That’s it!

So next time you have an error on your screen that needs explaining or you just want to capture your web site for that PowerPoint presentation – just remember Print Screen.
