I don't use farcebook and hoep to never have to. But with any Mac, you can takeascreenshot of what you want by hitting Command-Shift-4 and clicking anddragging across the piece you want. You'll get a jpg on your desltop called Screenshot (date/time) which you can rename.
On ipad ot phone pressboth the home and the sleep buttons to take a screenshot.
It is easy to convert to a pdf or text.
It's called "Picture 1" (or some other number if you've done it before) and there is no way to OCR it back into text. A bitmap image is useless.
TenFourFox just fucked my bookmarks again, throwing away hours of changes. It's garbage.
