Copying and Saving as Images

You may copy any region of a page, or the whole page, onto the clipboard for pasting into another application as an image. You may also save a page as an image file. This is useful when you wish to send someone a copy of a document or portion of a document that they can use with office productivity software (such as Microsoft Word) but do not wish them to be able to alter its content.

Copying a Region or Page

The “Select Region” and “Select Whole Region” options are enabled only if the DjVu document creator enabled the “Selection” submenu of the DjVu context menu.

To copy a region of a page to the clipboard:

1. Choose Selection from the DjVu context menu, then Select Region. The cursor changes to crosshatches.
2. Drag a rectangle around the region you want to select, whether text or images or both. That region becomes highlighted.
3. Enter the keyboard shortcut C, or access the DjVu context menu again and choose Selection, then Copy.

To copy a whole page to the clipboard:

1. Choose Selection from the DjVu context menu, then Select Whole Region. The whole page becomes highlighted.
2. Enter the keyboard shortcut C, or access the DjVu context menu again and choose Selection, then Copy.

Saving a Page as an Image File

Windows users may save the current page as a bitmap or BMP (.bmp) file.

Mac users may save the current page as a TIFF file.

To save the current page:

1. From the DjVu context menu, choose File, then choose Export to File….
2. Enter a path or browse for the desired directory and click Save.

NOTE: On a double-page spread, only the page you click on to access the context menu is included in the image.
