 |
|
All,
This is more a basic question, but something I have happen often. Why is it when I perform a ALT-Print Scrn on an active window [windows platform] and paste to a wordpad document, open PS and create new image and paste the image from the wordpad document to PS it is distorted?
Any help appreciated.
The reason I have to paste to wordpad first is I often have to complete documentation on systems that do not have access to PS so I paste to wordpad to save the clipboard images I need.
Thanks,
Kerry |

Paste to Photoshop first, then paste to the wordpad.

Please see original post - the reason I HAVE to paste to PS first is that the systems I am working do not have PS. I have to paste my screen shots to something and later transfer from workpad to PS to complete the documentation.
Thanks,
Kerry |

Sorry, I misunderstood. Try pasting to some othe rimaging program instead. MS Paint might do the trick.
