Use Print Screen to Share Your Computer Screen
One of the built in functions of any operating system is to capture whatever you are displaying on your screen.
I use screen capture to make tutorials and save digital receipts for purchases. This tutorial will show you how to:
- Create a screen shot on a Windows Computer
- Paste the screen shot into a word processing program (in this case, Microsoft Word)
- Save the file in Rich Text Format (.rtf) so that it can be opened by alternative programs other than Microsoft Word.
Step #1 - press the print screen button on your keyboard
Step #2 - Open a Word Processing Document, such as Open Office or Microsoft Word
Step #3 - Right Click anywhere on the screen and choose Paste
Step #4 - Save the File in Rich Text Format
- File>>Save As
- Make Sure that you save the screen shot to the desktop (so you can find it later)
- In the Save as Type, click on the drop down menu and choose Rich Text Format
