Sharing Captures from Snagit

You’ve taken your capture and made your edits. What’s next?

Snagit has a few handy tricks to help you and your capture get where ever it is you’re going.

Copy All

Use the Copy All button to copy a flattened version of your image to the Clipboard. Paste it where ever you’d like to use your image. This is useful for pasting your capture in to an email, document, or other authoring tool.

Outputs

Snagit can automatically send your capture to various destinations. These destinations are called outputs.

You can choose an output while setting up a capture in the Profile Settings pane. After editing your capture, click the Finish Profile button to send your capture to the selected output.

You can also select an output from the Send tab (or the Send dropdown on the Draw tab) to send your capture to an output from the Editor.

Outputs include:

E-mail

FTP

Program

Clipboard

Microsoft Office® Word, Excel, and PowerPoint

Screencast.com, TechSmith’s image and video hosting service

Output Accessories

The Microsoft Office and Screencast.com outputs are accessories; they operate just like the other outputs, but go to a specific program. Aside from the four that come installed with Snagit, you can download other output accessories from the TechSmith web site.

Output accessories contain special options that are unique to their destinations. The blog outputs allow you to compose a blog post to go alongside your capture. The Screencast.com output returns the URL of your uploaded image along with HTML code that includes a thumbnail when you paste that URL in an HTML capable field.

You can find the accessories download page by opening Manage Accessories from the Snagit Related Tasks list. Click the Get More Accessories button on the bottom left to go to the Snagit Accessories web page.
