After printing a screen, how do you...?

Question

.... turn it into a file? I want to upload and post the screen pic onto a website, but I don't know how to change it into a .JPG image first.

Thanks for the help!

Answer 1

If you want to save it as a picture format, just open Paint ( Click on Start --> All Programs --> Accessories --> Paint ) Then press Ctrl + V to paste that printed pic. Click on File on the very top left, then scroll down to Save As...to save it.

Answer 2

Paste it into Paint, or Microsoft Word.

Answer 3

The simplest way is to use Paint. When you push the print screen button all it does is copy what's on your screen to clipboard. After that just open paint and paste (ctrl+V or from the Edit menu) it in. Then you can edit it however you want and save it as a jpeg file.

Answer 4

Its pretty simple, all you have to do is open paint, or whichever program you can use for editing pictures, and paste it into the window.

Then you can save the file as whichever sort of picture file you want, whether is is JPEG or not. Save it wherever you can find it easily, and you're done.  

Answer 5

you can use paint or a similar program ( photoshop ) open a new file and past it in. crt-v or edit-past and save it under what you want. that's it. good luck
