Paul, what about the "print screen" key which is the first key of 3 abovethe 
6 which are above the curser keys.  Sight and Sound Technology asked me to 
send them a screen shot of the Aerlingus page with which I was having 
trouble sometime ago, in order for them to see what was happening.  I 
remember having to press this key but after that I am afraid it is a blurr.

Hi Eleanor,


"Could somebody give advice if the following is possible using JAWS 8.

1.
A screenshot/taken a picture of your computer screen and placing it in a
microsoft word document"


This would be very difficult if not impossible for a person using a screen
reader. You would not be able to determine the regions of the picture nor
the actual contents of this image if you managed to take it into word.
I use the process of taking  a "print screen shot" from time to time but my
only way of guessing if I was successful is that when I paste the print
screen graphic into word. I then determine if I was successful by where the
cursor lies now on the word screen, depending on how big the screen shot
will be determined by how many lines down the word page I end up after the
paste process. This is messy and not something I recommend to people.


"2. Cropping Screenshots/ to show a small section of the page using the
previous screenshot in which cropping the picture to size."

Again I would say this is impossible as like I mentioned previously, if you
don't know where regions of a printed screen shot are then you cannot know
where to begin selecting and cropping.


Paul.
