Very Handy -FREE- Screen Capture Utility
Posted in Tools, Utilities on October 7, 2007| Leave a Comment »
Screen Print & Capture 32 3.5 is a very handy screen capture utility. It can be downloaded from http://www.download.com/Screen-Print-Capture-32/3000-2384_4-10188787.html?tag=pdp_prod. It is freeware.
Once configured, it can remain in the system tray and whenever you need to take a screen shot (either full screen or just the active window) simply click the print screen button and that’s it. The application will take a screen shot, save it in the folder you chose , with the format you chose and with the naming convention you chose.
For someone who needs to send screen caputres to clients, this tool can save a lot of time and make the process very easy especially if they need to crop the images( to only send the active window)
