Partial Print Screen

Hi all,

Do someone know how to make a print screen for a part of document and not for entire document? To clarify better my questions I'm putting a screenshot below (the part I want to capture are those marked with red rectangle).

It would be great if what I mention to 'work' without using a specific software, but directly by using PrtScn button with combination of other keyboard buttons. Anyway, please explain what other methods exist for this purpose. The combination that I know until now are:

  • pressing directly PrtScn (which make a print screen for entire windows)
  • pressing Alt + PrtScn (which make a print screen only for active window / open document / folder etc.)

But as I explained the above, I want to have print screen for smalls part and not for entire window / active window... .

I use Windows XP with SP 3.

Thank you.

As far as I know, what you want to do is not possible with native Windows tools, but you can do it with third-party tools such as Snagit (not free, but free trial available).

Press Alt-PrtScrn, which copies the document to the clipboard, then
paste the clipboard into Paint, or some other graphics-editing
program. Crop it there to contain only what you want.

Use the Snipping Tool to capture a portion of the screen.

if you have office installed , take a screenshot and then open with Microsoft office picture manager, and then under edit pictures crop out what you do not want, if you have two sections then you will have to take two screenshots, (save under diff. names) and then crop each section. I do this all the time.
