Further to this
If you use Insert, Picture to insert an embedded image into a table cell,
sometimes it scales to fit the cell, and sometimes it doesn't. Have you any
idea what setting is controlling this?

Hi Christine (K)
http://www.freewarehome.com/ > Graphics > Screen Capture gives you lots of
options.
My personal favourite, if you can still find it there is the freeware
ScreenRIP 32 Beta (also available from www.progency.com)
Fantastic little tool, all bundled up with its help file in a simple ZIP
archive, no install script running needed, just extract and run.
In my experience, stable on all recent flavours of Windows except for the
later service packs of NT4.
Your issue of output resolution, as I see it, could be solved by linking to
separate files of the screen capture bitmaps rather than including them in
the document (when you resize an embedded / included graphic object in Word,
the resolution changes according to how it is stretched or shrunken to fit).
Best to create an empty, bordered or borderless table cell of the size you
want for the graphic first, then include picture from file into that cell.
The graphic will fill that cell at a size to fit to the text margins with no
apparent adverse impacts on its picture quality.

Hope that helps.
