I am trying to grab the frontpage of our online order tracking webpage to put into Powerpoint. The thing is the homepage even at 1024x768 exceeds the screen viewable by the browser by quite a bit.
I have tried highlighting & copy, pasting - comes out a mess. At the moment I am doing a troublesome technique, where I grab the whole screen, scroll down, grab again, paste them into word, crop the surplus and patch them together.
This thing changes all the time. There's gotta be a better way! Any ideas.
Thanks.

You will have to increase the screen resolution to beyond 1024x768 (if I understand your problem correctly).

I am assuming that the front page was designed to scroll up and down, otherwise, speak to the designers and ask the best resolution the website should be viewed in....

Thought of that. Thing is it's very long and all of it contains information which I hope to go through in the presentation. Evan at maximum resolution and full screen browser I am quite a way off. Any other suggestions, perhaps some kind of software?

If this is for a presentation, wouldn't it be better to break the info on the page into bite size portions anyway?

Have you saved the page as an HTM/L file? If so, you may want to edit (in ASCII) and change the <FONT NAME=&quot;somefont&quot;> to something smaller (so long as the font is existing on your machine). OR (if font styles are not that important) you can remove all <FONT> and <Hx> tags and start off the <BODY> section with <SMALL>.

That's all I can offer ya.

Just got back to this....have you looked at TOOLS->INTERNET OPTIONS and then played about with the ACCESSIBILITY and FONTS options?

Under ACCESSIBILITY if you set IGNORE FONT STYLES SPECIFIED, and set the font under FONTS option to TIMES ROMAN, the screen is reduced in size. Couple this with the higher screen resolution, you just might be able to squeeze the entire screen on...
