Capturing graphics

BioHazRd

OK guys, you've been helpful before, so now I am gonna try this one on you.

I want to capture a print output onto a pc. However the page includes graphics, so if i use something like hyperterminal the text part comes out ok, but the graphics are unintelligible.

Can this be done, and if so, how ?

Over to you......

Is it just a screen capture you want to do? What way have you tried so far? You could try paint shop pro, it has a very good screen capture utility..

Have you tried simply pressing the print scrn key on the keyboard? I wont capture your mouse cursor but usually gets everything else.. it saves in clipboard so just go into a graphics program and paste! MS paint can even be used!

This is no good, as the output is not coming from a pc. The output is in a format that will print on a hp laserjet, and I want to intercept this signal so that it can be stored etc. etc.

Thnx for the suggestion anyway

Oh i see.. in that case im not sure... never tried it.
You probably have tried this but what about printing to a file and copying the file? Never bothered to try it either but worth the suggestion...

I'll give it a go tomorrow and let you know, but something tells me it may not work
