Hello list, You probably already know this, but I use this shortcut a lot and hope it will help someone else. When I want just a temporary copy of something I see on a screen, or when I don't currently need or want to go to the trouble of downloading and printing a pdf of something, I use the Print Screen (PrtScn) function. * Position the screen image as desired * Hit the PrtScn key, which creates a copy of the screen image * Go to a blank Word page * Paste the copy on the Word page * Crop and re-size the copied image as desired * Repeat as needed to collect images from pages longer than a single screen * Print or save as desired This trick saves time and printer ink, for one thing, but it also simplifies the sharing of images since it can be easier to send an e-mail with the Word page as an attachment than to send a pdf. The Word image will show the URL of an online screen image, so you can later find and retrieve the pdf image if you decide you want a good permanent version. PJ
