"(drovers)" should of course be "(drivers)" in the previous post.

I should also have noted that the "save as bitmap" does need to be built into your program, unless you can blow up (zoom) the view enough to get useful "screen capture" results. Ctl-PrtScn loads the "picture" of the active window into memory, and you can "Paste" it from the clipboard as a picture. Since it only saves at 72 dpi (nominal screen resolution) what you see should be at least 2x - preferably 4x - what you want to use to get good printing results after you resize (smaller picture = more dpi) and paste somewhere.

If you can "zoom in" enough you probably don't really need to modify the program, if you haven't already provided the bitmap save feature; but a note on how do do it in your help file might be appropriate.
