[1. Installing Print Screen for Windows]
***** INSTALLATION SUGGESTION ****
We suggest that you add Print Screen for Windows to your 'Startup'
group. This way the <PrintScreen> key will always work everytime
Windows runs. This saves you from having to locate Print Screen
for Windows, and run it every time you start Windows.
If you would like Print Screen for Windows to start as an icon, just
edit the "properties" of the icon. To do this, single click on the
Print Screen for Windows icon, click on 'File', then 'Properties',
check the 'Run Minimized' box, then press <OK>. From now on, any time
you click on this Print Screen for Windows icon, it will start up
minimized.
***** ****
To install Print Screen for Windows 2.0 run the INSTALL.EXE from
Program Manager. Click on 'File' then 'Run' and type the drive,
directory and INSTALL to run the installation.
For example, if you have the Print Screen for Windows files on a
floppy disk, place the disk in drive A: or B:. If you place the
disk in drive A:, type "A:INSTALL". If your place the disk in
drive B:, type "B:INSTALL". If you have the Print Screen for
Windows files on your hard disk, type the drive letter, then
the directory, and INSTALL (i.e. "C:\MYDIR\INSTALL").
You will be presented with the directory that Print Screen for
Windows will be copied to.
Pressing 'Install', will install Print Screen for Windows
into the specified directory.

- TO PRINT THE CURRENT WINDOW to your printer, hold the <Alt> key down and
press the <PrintScreen> key.
Screen Menu
Open
Open a previously saved screen print in a .BMP file. Just type
the name of the file you want to open and press <OK>, or double
click the desired file name to open the file.
This .BMP file can be read in by many Windows programs. If you
are writing a document or presenation that you would like to
import screen prints into, you will want to save them to .BMP files.
The program will remember the directory you read your last .BMP file
from and save the future screen prints there.
Save As...
Save the screen print to a .BMP file. Just type the name of the
file you want to save the screen print as and press <OK>, or double
click the desired file name.
This .BMP file can be read in by many Windows programs. If you
are writing a document or presenation that you would like to
import screen prints into, you will want to save them to .BMP files.
The program will remember the directory you saved your last .BMP file
to and save the future screen prints there.
Print
Prints the displayed screen to the printer you define in
the Printer Setup option. If you do not setup a printer,
the Windows Default printer will be used.
Printer Setup
Displays the list of printers and printer drivers you
have installed on your PC. Select any printer and driver
and press OK to print your screen prints to.
Exit
Exits Print Screen For Windows
Options Menu
Stretch
Stretches/Squeezes the displayed screen into the
size of the Program's Window. This option will be
restored if selected when the program restarts as
long as 'Save Settings on Exit' is Selected.
Reverse
Displays/Prints the negative of the screen. Similar to
a negative of a photograph.
Auto Save
Automaticaly saves the screen print to a .BMP file when the
<PrintScreen> or <Alt>+<PrintScreen> key is pressed. The program
will generate a file name like PS000010.BMP. The first file
name generated is PS000000.BMP. The file name of each screen
print that you want automatically saved after that will be
incremented by one, for example, PS000001.BMP, then PS000002.BMP...
These .BMP files can be read in by many Windows programs. If you
are writing a document or presenation that you would like to
import screen prints into, you will want to save them to .BMP files.
This feature is very handy if you are documenting a program or
system. You can move through the program you are documenting,
screen by screen, pressing <Alt>+<PrintScreen>, saving them
to .BMP files.
Auto Print
Automatically prints the screen to the printer when
the <PrintScreen> or <Alt>+<PrintScreen> keys are
pressed. If this option is not selected, then you
must click on 'Print' in the 'Screen menu'. This
option will be restored if selected when the program
restarts as long as 'Save Settings on Exit' is selected.
Print Date/Time
When checked on the program will print the date and time the
printout is printed below the screen print.
Short Icon Title
The program will use an abbreviated program title when
iconized. This will save you screen real estate.
Fast Printing
Use a method of printing that sends your screen print
the printer faster than normal. You may sacrifice a little
print quality, but the screen print will be send to the
printer faster. The original version of Print Screen for
Windows used the slower method of printing to ensure the
highest quality printout. This feature allows you to
control how fast you need your screen print to print out.
Save Settings on Exit
Saves the state of the Options when the program exits. The
Options will be restored when Print Screen for Windows
is started again. This option will be restored if selected
when the program restarts as long as 'Save Settings on Exit'
is selected.
