Import Methods for Macintosh Computer Users

Mac
Mac
OS X
Notebook software provides Macintosh computer users with a variety of import methods.
Your choice of import method will largely depend on the kind of information you want to bring
into the Notebook file. In this section, you will learn to:
•
capture entire screens using the Screen Capture feature
•
capture regions of screens using the Screen Capture feature
• import graphics directly into a Notebook file
•
cut or copy text or graphics to the clipboard and then paste the contents into the Notebook
file. Note that in the Mac OS X operating system, you can only copy text into the clipboard.

Capturing All or Part of a Screen

The Screen Capture feature allows you to capture external Pen Tray annotations and the
application background into a Notebook file. Screen Capture lets you capture an entire
screen or a selected area of a screen into Notebook software. If SMART Notebook software
isn't open when you launch Screen Capture, it will automatically open to receive the captured
screen (or region).
By default, the captured image will appear on a new page in the current Notebook file. For
Mac OS 8.5 through 9.x operating systems, you can change this by de-selecting Snapshot
to New Page in the Tools menu. The newly captured image will then appear at the top of the
current Notebook file.
