Creating a Printer to Use with Printer Capture
You can create several different Printer Capture "profiles" to use during a printer capture. You can customize the output, filters, layout, and more and save the configuration with a name that you specify.
- In the main SnagIt interface, select Tools > SnagIt Printer Capture Settings. Select the Input Properties button.
- The Input Properties dialog box displays. In the SnagIt Printers tab, select the Add a SnagIt Printer button.
- In the Printer Name dialog box, enter the name for this printer. To help you remember what settings are enabled for each printer, the name should correspond to the settings that you will select. For example, Send E-mail with a Border or Capture Preview window with Drop Shadow. Select OK. You will see a confirmation dialog box. Select OK.
- Select the Properties button. The Document Properties dialog box will display. Select any layout and paper/quality options. Select OK.
- Your new printer will display within the dropdown list box in the Input Properties dialog box. Select OK. You will return to the SnagIt Printer Capture Settings.
- Set your Output from the dropdown menu of options. See also Printer Capture Options.
- Select the Filters from the dropdown menu of options. See also Printer Capture Filters.
- After the options are selected, within the SnagIt Printer Capture Settings dialog box, select OK. You will return to the main SnagIt view.
- Select the Preview Window button from the Options toolbar.
- From within the host application, select File > Print. Select the printer that you just created. Select OK.
- Once the capture is taken, it will be displayed within the Capture Preview window with any customization applied to it.
Note: If a printer capture has multiple pages, be aware that all vector objects are flattened when you move to another page. This means that once you switch pages within a capture, the vector object becomes part of the background and you can no longer move the object.- Select Finish to send your capture to the output source. Or, select Cancel to delete the capture.
To change any settings once a printer has been created, simply select the printer you want to edit within the SnagIt Printers tab. Select OK. Make the changes using the Output and Filter options located within the SnagIt Printer Capture Settings dialog box. Select OK. The settings will be saved.
