Screenshots in BIOPAC software

To take a screenshot of BIOPAC software/data for reports or publication:

A. Use the Edit Function

1. Choose Edit > Clipboard > Copy graph.
   • This will capture what is seen in the graph window; if a section is highlighted, it will capture just that.
2. Paste the clipboard to an application (e.g. Photoshop, Word, etc.).

B. Save As JPEG

1. Choose File > Save As.
2. Set Save as type to JPEG (*.jpeg) and click Save.
3. Set the JPEG export options—Color, Black and White, Quality (0 to 100)—and click OK.

C. Use a Built-In OS Utility

• Windows OS
       Snipping Tool: In the Windows Start menu search box, type “snip” to find the utility
• Mac OS
       Grab: Find this in the “Utilities” folder of the “Applications” folder 

D. Use the OS “print screen” function (these key combinations will copy images to the clipboard)
