How do I save a desktop screenshot as a jpg?

danmanchester

I know this is probably very simple , and I have done it in the past...but I've forgotten how to!

How do I save a screenshot so that I can open as a jpg? So that I can save to a webpage or pdf. I know to press the print/screen/sys key and paste to Word but I can't seem to convert it from Word to a jpg.

Thanks in advance :money: .

Paste it into a photo editing package and save as a jpeg.

I use Adobe Photoshop CS2 but most will do this easily

Thanks! Ummmmm I've actually just got photoshop cs2 myself and can't work out how to? I could do it in paint shop pro so am just getting used to adobe.

Just take a screenshot and paste into Microsoft paint, then chooose saves as and select .jpg.
