Subject:screen capture size From:kimber_hebert -at- ACS-INC -dot- COM Date:Mon, 16 Aug 1999 15:23:49 -0500
What is the prevailing sentiment regarding the size of screen captures in an
8.5
x 11" document? Obviously, 100% of actual is far too large.
I am including full screen captures and must label their parts with call
outs. I
have not been able to find out where there is anything definitive on this
subject. It seems to me that a screen capture at 65% of actual should be
sufficient.
Thanks in advance for your time!
