Tip
If you’ve captured a
screen or window into a
Notebook file, you can
make it a selectable
object by selecting
Retrieve Background
from the Draw > Order
menu. Then press the
Select tool and press
once on the screen or
window to select it.
The captured portion of the screen will appear in the top-left corner of a new page.
To capture a window:
1 Go to the window you want to capture.
2 Press the Window button in the center of the Screen Capture toolbar.
The window will appear as a hatched area.
3 Press once in the window to perform the capture.
The window will appear on a new page in the current Notebook file.
NOTE: If you accidentally capture a window or screen over existing material on the
current page, you can easily restore the original material. Select the newly captured
image. Select Edit > Cut, create a new page, and select Edit > Paste. The captured
image will appear on the new page and the previous page will be restored to its original
state.
To capture a screen:
1 Go to the screen you want to capture.
2 Press the Screen button in the Screen Capture toolbar.
The entire captured screen will appear on a new page in the current Notebook file.
Capturing Entire Files with Print Capture
Print Capture allows you to print entire multi-page files from other Windows applications to
the end of the current Notebook file. All the pages of the imported file can be immediately
viewed − one printed page per page of the current Notebook file.
During Notebook software installation, a print driver called the SMART Notebook Print
Capture driver will be installed on your system. This print driver functions like any other
printer, except that its output is captured in a Notebook file rather than on paper. You can
configure the SMART Notebook Print Capture driver output properties as you would any
other printer.
NOTE: You can only activate Print Capture from the source application.
To import files via the Notebook Print Capture driver:
1 Open the SMART Notebook (.nbk) file in which you want to append the print-captured
file.
2 Switch to the source application of the file you want to capture, and open that file.
3 From this application’s Print Setup command (or equivalent), select the SMART
Notebook Print Capture from the list of supported printers.
4 Activate the Print command.
5 Switch to the Notebook file.
The selected file will appear appended on to the current Notebook file − one printed
page per Notebook software page.
