Need to capture a long webpage, mark up a screenshot, or record screen activity? FastStone Capture brings those tasks together in a compact Windows tool, with multiple screenshot modes and a built-in editor.
Choose a capture mode
FastStone Capture can grab the full screen, a window or on-screen object, or a selected area. For a custom selection, choose a rectangular or freehand region. Scrolling capture extends the grab through a long window or webpage, which is useful when the content does not fit on one screen.
The program also records screen activity. Use it when a still image cannot show the steps or motion you need to document.
Annotate the captured image
After a screenshot, open it in the built-in editor to make focused changes before sharing. Add marks and notes to call attention to a control, explain a step, or identify an area. The editor is intended for screenshot touch-ups and annotation, not extensive image editing.
- Use arrows, circles, highlights, and text to direct attention.
- Crop an image or apply blur to selected content.
- Add a border or label to distinguish a capture.
Save or share a capture
Save image captures as BMP, GIF, JPEG, PCX, PNG, TGA, TIFF, or PDF. FastStone Capture also provides options to email a capture or upload it to a website, giving annotated screenshots a direct path to sharing.
