Set Up Your Capture > Capture Modes
Capture Modes
Capture Modes are general categories of the different types of captures that you can take using SnagIt. There are five different modes. Once you select a capture mode, you can select from a variety of different input and output types.
For instance, if you select Image as your mode, then you can select to input the entire screen, a window on the screen, or just a piece of the screen. You can also select to output the image to a file, an e-mail, Instant Messenger, and more.
To select a mode:
The following table gives a brief overview of each of the five different capture modes.
Icon Mode Name Overview
Image Capture
Capture an image of your screen or any portion of it. You can capture images of anything you see on your computer screen. Once captured, you can send the image to many outputs including a graphic file, the printer, e-mail, or even a Web server.See Image Capture.
Text Capture
Capture the text you see on the screen as editable, ASCII text. SnagIt can even save the text in tab delimited format so that it can be easily imported into spreadsheets or database applications for sorting and other manipulation.See Text Capture.
Video Capture
Record onscreen activity on your Windows desktop. Capture mouse movements and application action, then save the video as an AVI file. You can also use SnagIt to create time-lapse video of desktop activity over a period of time.See Video Capture.
Web Capture
Capture all the images from a Web site. All you need to do is type in the Web site address and select the Web page link depth, which is the number of levels of directories from the root Web address to be included in the search.See Web Capture.
Printer Capture
Capture anything you would normally send to a printer and send it to an image file instead. You do this by printing to the SnagIt virtual printer from any Windows application.Printer Capture settings are accessed differently from the other modes. From the main SnagIt interface, select Tools > SnagIt Printer Capture Settings to set the Printer Capture settings.
