Use smooth scaling
|
Decreases the dimensions (height and width) of screen capture images, while giving the edges of the capture a "smooth" appearance. The Smooth Scaling option improves the readability of the scaled down capture.
The Smooth Scaling option does not apply when captures are sent directly to the printer (for example, when Output is set to Printer).

|
Keep aspect ratio
|
Enable this option to keep the image aspect ratio fixed while changing the width or height. When setting dimensions, the numbers for width and height change interactively to keep aspect.
