Does anyone know of a way to print whats on your monitor when using software without a print option? I've got a job interview where i need proof that I've done some editing by visual means with software. I've done some stuff on Adobe Auditon 1.5 ... soooo... I wanna open up adobe auditon,load a song I've made and the original samples, then print whats on my monitor screen. Does anyone know a way to accomplish this? I'm sure it's something simple I'm overlooking, but it never hurts to ask... And my printer is an HP all in one, in case that helps.

Any help is GREATLY APPRECIATED!!

Than's easy:
1. Press "Print Screen" Key on the keyboard (above "Insert")
2. Start WordPad or any other wordprocessor and select Edit>Paste from the top menu.
That's it! wink

I know this post is a bit old, but I just wanted to share this other option as I just learned about it a few days ago.

If you hit the Restore Down button on your window and hit Alt+Print Screen, you will print to screen only the window that is activated and not the whole screen. This way you don't have to bother with cropping out the task bar to get a clean copy.

You'll have to manually resize the screen a bit to get the most to show, but it's worth the extra five seconds to do so.

Also...for the record...it actually works better if you paste into an image editor such as Paint or Photoshop (not a text editor wink

)
