Importing content using SMART Notebook Print Capture
When you install SMART Notebook software on a Windows XP computer, you also install SMART Notebook Print Capture. SMART Notebook Print Capture works like any other printer driver, except it captures output in a .notebook file, instead of printing it on paper. Each page of an imported file appears as an object on its own page, with its original formatting and page breaks preserved.
To use SMART Notebook Print Capture
-
In the source file you want to export to a .notebook file, select .
The Print dialog box appears.
-
Select SMART Notebook Print Capture in the list of printers.
-
Optionally, change the page orientation and graphics resolution (see To change the page orientation and graphics resolution).
-
Specify a page range, and then press OK or Print.
If an existing .notebook file isn’t open, a new .notebook file opens. Each page of the source file appears on a separate page.
OR
If an existing .notebook file is open, each page of the source file appears in the .notebook file after the current page.
To change the page orientation and graphics resolution
-
Press the Properties or Preferences button.
The SMART Notebook Print Capture Properties dialog box appears.
-
Select Portrait or Landscape.
-
Enter a number in the Horizontal Resolution and Vertical Resolution boxes to change the resolution of the imported image on the page.
Tips
-
Use the same value in both boxes to prevent image distortion.
-
For best results, use a value between 50 and 100, using the table below as your guide:
1152 × 864
|
100 × 100
|
1024 × 768
|
90 × 90
|
800 × 600
|
60 × 60
|
640 × 480
|
50 × 50
|
-
The higher the resolution, the larger the image.
-
Don’t use the Draft, Low or Medium options because they may not scale the image proportionally.
-
Press OK.
Important
Do not press ENTER on your keyboard instead of the OK button. The ENTER key closes the dialog box without saving your changes.
