Subject:efficient way to capture screens? From:Tracey May <traceym -at- PENRIL -dot- COM> Date:Wed, 14 Sep 1994 14:17:18 -0400
Hi. I'm currently writing about a software product that has lots and lots
of screens. I need to determine the best way to capture these screens.
I want to minimize their size and the time it takes to output them to our
laser printer. Because the manual will be reproduced in black and white
(from laser-printed pages), the screen shots don't have to be in color.
I have Tiffany, Corel Capture, and Hijaak. I'll be importing the graphics
files into Ventura and FrameMaker (Windows).
