Need to capture a long page, a particular window, or a scanner image? SmartCapture brings several screen-capture modes together with tools for marking up and sharing the results.
Choose what to capture
Select a rectangular area, an individual object, a window, or an entire screen. For content that extends beyond the visible page, SmartCapture also offers scrolling capture, so a long document or web page can be collected as one image instead of assembled from separate grabs.
The capture options cover both on-screen material and images from TWAIN-compatible data sources, including scanners and digital cameras. That gives users a way to bring a scan into the same screenshot workflow as desktop content.
Mark up the screenshot
Use the built-in editor to make the important part of a capture clear. Its annotation tools include arrows, text, boxes, tags, and highlights, which suit instructions, feedback, and support notes. Add these marks after capturing the screen, without switching to a separate image editor for basic callouts.
- Point to a control or detail with an arrow.
- Add text or a tag to explain what viewers should notice.
- Use boxes and highlights to distinguish areas of the image.
Share the finished image
SmartCapture combines capture, editing, and image sharing in one workflow. Capture the relevant screen content, add any needed explanation, then share the resulting image. This keeps the visual reference and its annotations together for documentation, tutorials, or a support conversation.
Capture a long page in one image
Scrolling capture is suited to pages and documents that continue below the visible screen. It gathers the extended content in a single capture, avoiding the need to align multiple screenshots by hand. The same basic process works for a long browser page or an on-screen document.
