Default Screen Captures/Print Screen

Hi Graham,

I'm using the latest SnagIT 9, which is an excellent utility, but have a
problem when pasting a captured image into Word 2000 for a training manual.
Word scales the image downward and makes it very difficult to see important
detail. Resizing the image using Word's picture format settings works but it
moves the placeholder to the right. Is there any way I can manipulate the
placeholder to enlarge the image but centre it on the page. Centre-alignment
has no effect.

Regards,

Jimmy

If you are creating manuals, you owe yourself a copy of SnagIt
www.techsmith.com, which makes the task of creating and editing screen shots
child's play.

If you are not seeing images in the print layout view, uncheck tools
options view picture placeholders and check 'drawings'.

In the past, I've used older versions of WORD to paste print screen
captures to put in manuals I've created....in WORD 2003, the only
time I can see the actual item I've pasted is in the reading aloud
view in WORD. I want to see the items so that I can properly crop
them prior to resuming my writing of manuals, any suggestions?
