How to Capture a Web Page in a Screen Shot

Windows 7 comes with the "Snipping Tool" application that lets you capture screen shots of items on your desktop. A screen shot is a digital copy of a computer's screen that can be emailed, printed or shared like any other digital photograph. These screen shots are highly customizable and can be sized and shaped according to your needs. You can take a screen shot of an entire Web page using the Snipping Tool.

Instructions

1. Open the Start menu and type "Snipping Tool" in the search bar. Click it from the "programs" section of the result listing.

2. Click the arrow beside the "New" button and then click "Window Snip."

3. Select the window that is opened to the Web page you want to take an image capture of.

4. Click "Save Snip" in the screen you are returned to.

5. Browse to the folder you would like to save the snip to.

6. Enter a name for the screen capture and click "Save."
